Sauvignon Blanc
A New Zealand specialty
Fresh, zesty wines with an aroma that hits you at 40 paces, the world’s leading Sauvignon Blanc style is from Marlborough. Aromatic, intense, zesty, one sniff and the taste buds are tingling with anticipation. The array of pungent flavours can include ripe and juicy tropical fruits or follow a more herbaceous style with chopped capsicum, citrus and grassy overtones.
European offerings
France’s Loire Valley produces perhaps the most famous French styles, being those of Sancerre and Pouilly Fume. Bone dry with no oak influence, these elegant, mineral style, ‘flinty’ wines are a more subtle alternative to the Marlborough style.
Food Match
As a fruit filled, flavoursome wine with quite firm acidity and hint of sweetness, Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is great as a glass to enjoy on its own or with seafood such as shellfish, green salads and dishes with freshly chopped herbs. The most famous tipple in the Land - just drinking it makes you a good citizen!
