Buy Villa Maria Estate Ngakirikiri 2020 – Premium New Zealand Cabernet Sauvignon
Experience the pinnacle of New Zealand winemaking with Villa Maria Estate Ngakirikiri 2020, a flagship Cabernet Sauvignon blend that reflects over 50 years of viticultural mastery. Produced in Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand’s most renowned red wine region, this full-bodied and elegant wine promises complexity, structure, and exceptional ageing potential.
An Exceptional Hawke's Bay Cabernet Sauvignon Blend
Crafted from 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by 8% Merlot and 2% Malbec, this wine showcases the unique terroir of the ancient Ngakirikiri gravels of Hawke’s Bay. These deep, free-draining soils impart a distinct mineral quality and concentration to the wine, setting it apart from other premium New Zealand red wines.
Tasting Notes: Rich, Layered and Complex
This deep ruby-coloured red wine offers intense and refined aromatics. On the nose, vibrant layers of cassis, red and black plum, and floral violets intermingle seamlessly with nuanced notes of freshly ground coffee, dried thyme, and cedar spice.
On the palate, concentrated black fruit flavours unfold gracefully, framed by fine-grained tannins and well-integrated oak. The wine’s poised structure and natural acidity ensure a long, elegant finish with a supple, velvety mouthfeel.

Winery | Hawkes Bay's coastal location and proximity to mountains typically experience a dry maritime climate with an influential diurnal temperature range. Gimblett Gravels is approximately 15km inland and experiences temperatures typically warmer than neighbouring localities. This promotes a consistent level of ripeness achieved by low-yielding vines planted in free-draining soils. |
