Sauvignon Blanc

Fresh cut grass, gooseberry, high acidity and cat pee! These are characteristics of the popular New Zealand sauvignon blancs, which dominate our winners’ list this year. Planted all over the world, some favourite regions are Bordeaux, Loire Valley, New Zealand and the USA. Classic food pairings are seafood: oysters, shrimp, and lightly grilled fish. Green salads, especially those with goat cheese and citrus. - George Hatajlo
