A delicious range of wines that reflect the thriving New Zealand land that gave them life.
Earth Garden embodies our holistic view of sustainability where natural farming means healthy soils and vineyard ecosystems, creating healthy vines and wines full of life and flavor, just as nature intended. When you taste the Earth Garden wines, you taste the care put into the soil, the conscious tending of the vines, the careful handling of the fruit produced and the respect for our relationship with the land.

Villa Maria wines are made for the moment and these wines perfectly capture a moment in time, whether it be cool nights, long hot days, or the warm Pacific breeze of the growing season. The essence and purity of the New Zealand landscape has been bottled in the Earth Garden range, and we can’t wait to share these wines with the world.

Tasting Note
Our Earth Garden Organic Sauvignon Blanc has lifted aromas of citrus fruits, lime and grapefruit that leap from the glass. The flavours on the palate showcase fresh herbs, lemongrass and passionfruit. The intense fresh fruit concentration is balanced with zesty acidity and is perfectly thirst-quenching.

Serving Suggestions
This wine is suitable for plant based diets, so try with fresh Summer salads featuring vibrant lemon zest, roasted hazelnuts or green herb accents.

Season & Harvest
Summer was dry and mild with Marlborough’s signature high sunshine hours and cool nights delivering fruit in the best possible condition. The early autumn 2021 season provided Marlborough with very stable weather conditions therefore fruit was able to reach optimum physiological and flavor
ripeness. The fruit for this blend came from Belmonte, Winery Block vineyards in Wairau Valley & Resolution, Templar & Waterfalls Rd vineyards in Awatere Valley.
