If you were blindfolded for a taste test, you’d probably take a sip of sauvignon blanc and say something along the lines of, “Oh - I love it.” It’s a loveable wine, for sure. Aromatically driven, sauvignon blanc will have you tasting zesty fruity flavors and maybe even a subtle hint of bitter green pepper from time to time.

As one of the most popular white wines in the world, we’ll let the wine speak for itself. Why? Because there’s more to sauvignon blanc than just being a “popular white wine.” Sauvignon blanc is straightforward in its flavors. You never need to guess what’s hidden in a glass of good sauvignon blanc. You’ll know right when you take your first sip...after we deliver it to you, of course.

Traditionally speaking, a white wine like sauvignon blanc is usually on the drier side. This means that sauvignon blanc is made when the natural sugars from the grapes are converted into alcohol. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t find a sauvignon blanc with hints of sweetness. There are actually some winemakers out there that leave in a touch of sugar for a richer taste.

Depending on if your bottle was made in a cool climate or a warm climate, the subtle flavors of your sauvignon blanc can range from peach and passionfruit (warm climate) to a more herbal, earthy flavor (cold climate).

Since it has herbal hints, sauvignon blanc would go great paired with any green vegetables such as zucchini and asparagus. So get some corn tortillas, roast up some veggies of your choice, sprinkle some cheese and salsa verde on top, and you’ve got yourself the perfect tacos for this wine. Okay, now I know what I’m having for dinner.

Of course! Saucey was invented to do exactly that. Find a bottle of sauvignon blanc you like, add it to your cart, and we’ll be at your place before you know it.
