Frequently Asked Questions

What is Sauvignon Blanc wine?
Sauvignon Blanc is a vivacious white grape variety originating from the Bordeaux region of France. Over time, it has garnered international acclaim and spread to various corners of the wine-producing world. Renowned for its distinctive aroma profile, Sauvignon Blanc typically exhibits notes of green and black fruits, freshly cut grass, and often a characteristic note of bell pepper or, in some regions, passion fruit. Its high acidity ensures a crisp, refreshing finish, making it a sought-after choice for white wine enthusiasts and those looking for a spirited palate refresher.

What are the most popular Sauvignon Blanc wines?
While the grape finds its roots in Bordeaux, regions like New Zealand's Marlborough have truly placed Sauvignon Blanc on the global stage. These Kiwi wines are celebrated for their explosive aromatics and zesty citrus flavors. In its homeland, the Loire Valley, particularly in appellations like Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé, Sauvignon Blanc achieves a minerality and depth that are much lauded. Napa Valley, with labels like Cakebread and Frog's Leap, showcases a riper, more fruit-forward style of this dynamic varietal.

What are the best Sauvignon Blanc wines?
The apex of Sauvignon Blanc largely depends on personal preference, given the grape's diverse expressions. For those who love razor-sharp acidity and mineral undertones, wines from Sancerre, like those from Domaine Vacheron or Pascal Jolivet, are top-tier. If a more pronounced tropical fruit expression is desired, look no further than New Zealand's Cloudy Bay or Dog Point. And for a harmonious blend of New and Old World styles, Napa Valley's Spottswoode offers a Sauvignon Blanc that is both lush and invigorating.

What are the foods best paired with Sauvignon Blanc wines?
The zesty and aromatic nature of Sauvignon Blanc makes it a delightful companion for a range of dishes. Its high acidity and pronounced flavor profile pair wonderfully with fresh seafood like oysters, ceviche, or grilled shrimp. Goat cheese, especially the classic French Chevre, is a match made in heaven with this varietal. Furthermore, its herbaceous notes complement dishes featuring green herbs, asparagus, or green salads. For those indulging in spicier fare, the tropical nuances of a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc can beautifully counterbalance the heat of Thai or Mexican dishes.
