Sauvignon Blanc
Sauvignon Blanc, hailing from Bordeaux, France, first gained fame for its smooth blends with Semillon, enriched by oak maturation for added body and texture. Yet, its acclaim soared with Malborough, New Zealand‘s version, where a grassy, fresh style and distinctive gooseberry aroma captivated wine lovers globally. Beyond France and New Zealand, the Loire Valley‘s Sancerre and Pouilly Fumé regions excel in crafting sophisticated wines. Here, winemakers celebrate the grape’s mineral and flinty complexity through dry, crisp white wines. This journey of Sauvignon Blanc from Bordeaux to New Zealand and back to the Loire underscores its versatile appeal and global adoration.
