Villa Maria Private Bin is a 100% Sauvignon Blanc grown in vineyards across the Wairau and Awatere Valley sub-regions of Marlborough. Fruit was crushed, pressed and settled for 48 hours before removing the press solids from the clear juice for fermentation. Both neutral and aromatic yeast strains were used to aid in intensity. Fermentation was undertaken at 12 to 14° C to maintain flavour and aromas. After a short period of resting on yeast lees it was filtered and bottled to capture its vibrancy.

David Williams (The Guardian.com) "Villa Maria make a benchmark example of the joyously vivacious, passion fruit and elderflower-scented Marlborough take on sauvignon."

"Villa Maria's 2019 Private Bin Sauvignon Blanc is easily one of the company's most successful vintages. It captures subtle hints of greenery and aligns them beautifully with notes of passion fruit and grapefruit. It's medium-bodied, reasonably generous on the palate and features a long, intense finish, something that many of its competitors lack."robertparker.com
