HERE’S WHY YOU SHOULD GET A

TASTE OF THIS FRUITY ALCOHOLIC

DRINK

FRUITY TASTEIt is available in different fruit flavours that vary

from lime, passion fruit and green apple.

Although one fruit is used in a specific sauvignon

wine, its taste can be different others since not

all manufacturers use the same ripe grapes.

The herbaceous notes of Sauvignon

Blanc wine is what makes it unique

from the rest of the white wines.

Once you open a bottle of it, you’ll

get to smell the herbal aroma of bell

pepper, gooseberry, grass or

jalapeño.

H E R B A C E O U S N O T E S

RICH TEXTUREYou can feel the rich texture of it once you

get a taste of it. Having a rich texture means

that there is a hint of sweetness on it but it is

too overpowering. It’s just the right sweet

flavour.

VARIOUS STYLESAlthough it originated in France, It is

manufactured and produced in different

countries such as New Zealand, Italy, and Chile.

One of the countries who produced the most

popular one is New Zealand and it’s called the

Sacred Hill Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc.

SERVING STYLESMost of it is best served cold. This is to bring

out its aroma and taste. But there are other

variants (such as the ones that have a richer

oaked style) that can be served to be

marginally warmer.
