Details
Some classic Sauvignon Blanc characters here - quite herbal and fresh, with plenty of grassy notes and some lime leaf. There are some more tropical flavours as well, hints of peach and pineapple. The palate is dry and zesty, with some candied ginger and more grassiness. Easy going and easy to enjoy!

Origin: Likely France, but unconfirmed. Possibly a wild grape variety that was indigenous to multiple areas in slightly different forms. Mainly Grown In: France, New Zealand, Italy, Chile, USA, South Africa and Australia Key Facts: If you’re a fan of a lime twist in your drinks, the smell of fresh-cut grass in the morning, and have been told you are intense or that "you sure stand out in a crowd", well, you’ve met your match. Sauvignon Blanc is an all-dials-at-max kind of grape, which means it's going to fist pump your senses with its intense (and sometimes pungent) aromas, mouth-watering freshness and a cleansing herbaceous character. As one of the most planted white grapes in the world, it’s no wonder it has claimed hearts in various styles; It can be lean and zesty when it’s from cooler climates and fuller and more tropical when grown in warmer ones. Fun Fact: The first Friday in May is celebrated as International Sauvignon Blanc Day! Like we needed another excuse...

Pairing guide
Bright, zesty, and packed full of character, this spritely Sauvignon Blanc is the perfect antidote to any dull mealtime. It’s fabulously food-friendly, and is absolutely ideal for matching with dishes of green vegetables (especially green beans, asparagus, and snow peas), silky white fish fillets, and creamy goat’s cheese or a funky camembert. Most chicken and pork dishes will do the job very nicely, and it’s especially delicious with shellfish like clams and mussels.
