There is plenty of fruit weight here, some mocha, and grilled meat notes, more vanilla coming through on palate. Supports Kea Conservation Trust, working to protect this majestic and cheeky bird.
The bouquet showcases red rose, spice, cherry and mulberry, with hints of cedar. The palate is full and generous, showing great texture and mouthfeel, it displays liquorice, spicy black plum, red currant, and blackberry, with a tinge of pepper.
George Fistonich started Villa Maria as a one-man band in 1961. An icon of the NZ wine industry, this family owned company became a global brand in just 50 years. Villa Maria's Cellar Selection is an intensely flavoured, elegant and food-friendly wine range.
The Parson is a lively berry-scented drop with a hint of black pepper on the nose. Shiraz fruit floods the mouth with good depth and persistence, finishing dry and firm.
Select parcels of Pinot Noir from around New Zealand went into this wonderfully fruit-driven wine, bursting with dark cherry and wild lavender aromas, with notes of red liquorice and clove and a smooth finish.
Elegance, line and length are the hallmarks of this wine. Built around its juicy acid structure and a tell-tale textural minerality, it is a Sauvignon with persistence, succulence and harmony.
