Natalie's Score: 89/100

Terrific lemon vibrancy and mouth-watering juiciness for food, especially salads and vegetarian dishes. Not too herbal, with a medium body weight. A stunningly great price for such taste and quality. This would also make a great aperitif.

Sauvignon Blanc food pairings: mild green curry with shrimp, herbed chicken breast with a green salad.

Reviews and Ratings

Alana L rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

A crisp and lovely Sauvignon Blanc from the northern side of the Loire. Benefiting from a full southern exposure this wine has a juicy fruit aroma (apricot was our impression though other reviews mention grapefruit). We were recommended this wine by our favourite SAQ wine advisor for our annual New Year’s Eve party which features a selection of sweet and savoury tapas as one that would pair brilliantly with a variety of starters and both sweet and salty flavours. A real delight at just over $14 at the SAQ.

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.
