Villa Maria 2024 Private Bin Sauvignon Blanc 750ml

If this isn't one of the largest-volume, highest-selling Sauvignon Blanc blends on the planet, I will be very surprised. The 2024 Private Bin Sauvignon Blanc smells consistently like it always does: cassis and green apple, passion fruit, white pineapple and white pepper, and it has briny acidity. It's a neat wine, with everything ordered and in place. Impressive. 12.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.
