Te Koko Sauvignon Blanc2020

Sauvignon Blanc is the flagship varietal of New Zealand. Originating from the Bordeaux region of France, the grape now accounts for 62% of all the wine produced in New Zealand. The New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc scene started popping in 1970s, with high quality Sauvignon Blancs coming out of the Marlborough region in particular. This illustrated the great potential for grape growing in New Zealand.  Sauvignon Blanc tends to be fermented in stainless steel vats, which results in a clean, crisp flavor. These wines tend to be very aromatic with notes of grapefruit, tropical fruit and cut grass. When it comes to pairing, think white meat, shellfish, and try to accentuate the herbaceous qualities of the wine with ingredients like parsley and cilantro.
