AVARUS SAUVIGNON BLANC - | France
Bright yellow. Toasty aromas of balsam and floral notes. Medium bodied and dry. The acidity counterbalances the richness provided by the oak fermentation. The finish is long with delicious acidity and green flavors. Chicken in Tarragon sauce or dry goat cheeses would be delicious with it!

Invigorating "cousin" of Sancerre. Very expressive 100% Sauvignon Blanc with pronounced pink grapefruit and nectarine aromas and flavors. Lively, refreshing finish.

We have found the potential for complementary food-and-wine pairings to be great with a fine Sauvignon Blanc. From the spicy cuisine of Southeast Asia, to the rustic seafood dishes from the south of France, Sauvignon Blanc has a unique versatility, which allows for spontaneity and creativity in the culinary arena.

Le Petit Caboche Vin de Pays de Vaucluse Sauvignon Blanc 2008 (France)
I don't know what part of the country you are in, but here in California it is HOT this summer. I remember when I first started drinking wine, I was the kind of guy that would drink a huge, heavy red no matter what the thermostat said. In my older, and hopefully wiser years, I have really learned to appreciate the delights of a crisp white wine and the Le Petite Caboche Vin de Pays de Vaucluse really fits the bill. A Sauvignon Blanc based blend, the wine has a beautiful nose of lime, stone and lemon...

"Château Monbousquet is located in the commune of St- Sulplice de Faleyrens in the south-east part of the St-Emilion appellation. For years Monbousquet was a notorious underachiever, whose wines were soft, dilute and generally uninspiring. The catalyst for change came when the property was bought by Parisian supermarket tycoon Gérard Perse in 1993. Gérard, who now owns Château Pavie and Château Pavie-Decesse, severely restricted the yields, constructed a state of the art cuvier and hired the ubiquitous...

Though it hails from Touraine, Chateau de la Presle is very New World in style. Reminiscent of an excellent New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, it has a zippy acidic structure and bright flavors of grapefruit, tropical fruit, green pepper, and fresh grass.

Peaches on the nose with pink grapefruit, lime and gooseberry on the palate. This wine is a perfect cross between a Sancerre and a ripe Marlborough, New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. Good crisp acidity with mineral and stone fruit to balance. Blends nicely with shellfish, especially oysters, pasta salads, grilled shrimp or seared scallops.

A neighbor to Sancerre in the Loire, Touraine produces some fabulous, inexpensive Sauvignon Blancs. This wine’s crisp acidity with notes of grapefruit would be delicious with bouillabaisse or cheese.
