Since its founding in 1961 by Sir George Fistonich, Villa Maria has grown into one of New Zealand’s most recognizable names, consistently championing bold, industry-leading winemaking practices. This Reserve Pinot Noir reflects a rigorous selection process from their most distinguished Marlborough parcels. The wine displays deep, complex layers of black cherry, dark plum, and subtle floral violet notes. On the palate, it is remarkably refined, showing a velvety, rounded texture and a well-integrated oak structure that frames the concentrated fruit core, culminating in a finish of impressive length and precision.
