Decanter World Wine Awards – Gold
Ok, so we know that Villa Maria are one of the best producers in NZ and that they win a hell of a lot of medals (in fact they’re NZ’s most awarded winery) but when even their entry level, everyday quaffing Villa Maria Private Bin Riesling label is getting in on the act you know they’ve got the golden touch!
Winning Gold and 95/100 at the Decanter World Wine Awards in London is a big deal – from over 18,000 wines entered a mere 4% of wines won Gold. This was one of them and joined just 23 other Kiwi wines to win Gold at the DWWA!
Using fruit from the excellent 2024 Marlborough vintage this is a classic off-dry style Riesling. That means it’s got plenty of lively, juicy lemon, lime and mandarin flavours with a touch of sweetness on the finish.
Weighing in at just 11.5% it’s a great option to serve chilled before dinner or with spicy Asian cuisine.
