Villa Maria Reserve Clifford Bay Sauvignon Blanc

Clifford Bay encompasses everything fresh and vibrant from the cooler and windier Awatere Valley.  The cooler climate in the Awatere Valley is influenced by Mt Tapuae-o-uenuku with alpine winds flowing down the valley and from cooling easterly breezes coming inshore from Clifford Bay and the Pacific Ocean.
Pungent aromatics of lemongrass, jalapeño and fresh herbs with the classic flavour of limes and fresh garden peas.  Natural acidity and chalky-seashell and mineral texture on the finish.
