Sauvignon Blanc deserves its own day to be celebrated. This racy grape has achieved world-wide popularity, propelling Sauvignon Blanc to top-tier white wine status alongside Chardonnay and Pinot Grigio.
As one of the most widely planted wine grapes in the world, sauvignon blanc can offer a wide range of styles and flavors. Certain appellations have emerged as prime spots for growing sauvignon blanc — each with its own distinctive expression.
Chefs around the globe love the pairing potential of a crisp sauvignon blanc. From the tropical and stone fruit notes in warmer climates, to the bright minerality & citrus in cooler climates, sauvignon blanc gives the world’s culinarians a palette of possibilities.
Enjoy your favorite or branch out to try an interesting style from a new winery or region.
