Hard work at the Taylors Pass Sauvignon Blanc vineyard

In terms of wine, Villa Maria owes the quality of its wines primarily to hard work in the vineyards. Owning its own vineyards is crucial for Villa Maria, as this is where quality can be best controlled. However, a conscious decision has also been made to work with a significant number of contract growers, with whom they also have strong relationships. This, in turn, provides flexibility and is considered important for New Zealand's wine regions, especially Marlborough. In Marlborough, roughly half of Villa Maria's grapes come from the 400 hectares of vineyards it owns, and the other half from contract growers. The company's philosophy can be summarized as "The best winemakers, the best vineyards. That ensures quality at every level."
