Ice down a bottle of Villa Maria's 2003 Sauvignon Blanc. Twist the cap, fill a glass, close your eyes and inhale.
Now exhale… and wipe the smile off your face, if you can. The nose on this wine is so fresh and fruity, you can't help but imagine you're standing barrelside at a tasting room somewhere amid the lush greenery of New Zealand.
Sauvignon Blanc is a New Zealand specialty, of course, but if you're used to Sauvignon Blancs that are crisply dry, the 2003 Villa Maria offers a little something extra: a hint of the South Seas, a slightly primal tropical flavor that gives your primitive brainpan a flash of deep jungle leaves and tangled vines.
New Zealand is at the forefront of the screw cap revolution, and with wines like this you can see why. With the freshness of a screw cap seal, you get every atom of flavor that winemaker George Geris blended into the bottle.
The 2003 Villa Maria is not just fruit-forward -- it's fab-forward. We're big fans. At this price, we're betting you will be too.

Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
Green Wines
Wines that use sustainable, organic and/or biodynamic practices in the vineyard and/or winemaking process. We rely on a number of U.S. and International certifications to qualify wines "green."
Collectible
These wines will improve from additional bottle age, when properly stored, and may show the greatest potential to increase in value.
Great Wine Gifts
These selected wines make impressionable gifts for wine enthusiasts and oenophiles alike.
Boutique Wines
These wines are made in limited quantities and are typically produced from single vineyard sources or made by small, artisanal wineries. While the winery may produce larger quantities, we limit wines with this designation to a 1,000 case production.

About Professional Ratings
These wine ratings are based on a 100-point quality scale, and are selected by each publication's unique criteria. Some wine ratings are expressed as ranges. When this occurs we will list the highest score in the range and note the full range within the tasting note.
While ratings may influence your decision, the ultimate judgment is your palate.
