Villa's 2020 Private Bin Sauvignon Blanc strikes a careful balance between leafy, herbal and even gently vegetal characters and tropical fruit. Hints of snow peas accent passion fruit on the nose, while the medium-bodied palate is streamlined and refreshing, ending on notes of cut grass, fresh citrus and tinned pineapple. It's a solid effort, especially as an entry-level offering.

Ruby grapefruit, pomelo and Fuji apple flavors are focused, intense and lip-smacking on the finish. Drink now. 100,000 cases imported.??–MW??Region: New Zealand / Marlborough Select to Add
