A beautiful day in Marlborough.

Sauvignon Blanc LOIRE AND NEW ZEALAND Sauvignon Blanc is grown across the world, but the polar-opposite examples crafted in the Loire, France; and Marlborough, New Zealand, are easily the most important and treasured. In the Loire, Sauvignon Blanc expresses a pure, vibrant acidity, with bright fruit, evocative herbal tones and a stony character. Many of the finest, most sought-after Loire Sauvignon Blancs come from Pouilly-Fumé and Sancerre, the former instantly identifiable by their spiced, smoky minerality and the latter by their noted gunflint minerality. Marlborough redefined the world’s expectations for Sauvignon Blanc in the 1980s and ’90s. These wines are similarly fresh and vibrant, revealing the signature grass and asparagus that people love about the Loire’s Sauvignon Blancs, but with a heightened intensity and pungency.
