5th May is International Sauvignon Blanc Day – not that you need an excuse to drink this dazzling, lipsmacking, fruit-filled, zesty, mouthwatering white. Any day is Sauvignon Blanc Day!
Though you might like to open something special on the day – and that’s where we come in. We have a superb range of international Sauvignon Blancs, and we are thrilled to bring a dozen of them to you (all shimmering with Gold!) at an amazing price.
We start in the old world, with fine French Sauvignon Blanc in the sublime Les Secrets d’Abbesse 2022 from the Loire, and the lovely La Belle Saison 2022 from the sun-blessed south, both wonderfully elegant and minerally. Then, savour some truly exciting new world examples bursting with vibrant fruit and irresistible aromatics.
First up is the lip-smacking Excelsior Little Hill Sauvignon Blanc 2024 from South Africa’s Breede River Valley and the De Wet family, deliciously grassy and zingy. The stunning Alta Tierra Gran Reserva 2023 is a prestige Chilean star from high up in the Elqui Valley, piercingly fresh and sunshine bright. There’s also the lovely Hayrick Sauvignon Blanc 2022 from California, full of bright orchard fruit, plus wonderful hay-like nuances. Last is NZ’s bestselling Marlborough favourite – the fabulous Sunday Bay 2023, with exuberant grapefruit flavours, a grassy nettle character, and bright citrus zip.
Another bestselling favourite, it comes from the award-winning Siefried Estate in sunny Nelson (not far from Marlborough) and absolutely dazzles with bright, juicy tropical flavours of passionfruit and melon, on a long, lip-smacking finish. Worth $199 a bottle, it’s yours FREE!
Yes, Burgundy makes Sauvignon Blanc! Saint Bris is a tiny appellation next door to Chablis, and it’s permitted to use Sauvignon Blanc in its wines. Not only is this wine absolutely delicious, but it’s also a bit of a rarity. Wonderfully fresh, pure and intense, with lots of citrus character, it’s a stunning Sauvignon you must try.
