#WineWednesdayWisdom: Sauvignon Blanc Grape Profile

You ever taste a wine that you get like goose bumps? And then you smell it, it smells like a lemon running barefoot in the grass. Tune in to kosher.com to find out more. Then you, my friend, have tried Sauvignon Blanc. Sauvignon Blanc is a loud one. It needs a lot of attention. No matter what, expect intoxicating aromas and bright, clean acidity. From there, depending where it's grown and how it's produced, the wine style will change. New Zealand, expect a lot of tropical fruit, passion fruit. It's a vacation in your glass. France, sincere, we get rounder, more citrus, and even, yes, I'm going to say catnip. Sauvignon Blanc is intense because it has two specific aromatic compounds. Science. Thiols and pyrazines. Think grapefruits and green peppers. When you think of Sauvignon Blanc, think of pop music. Chardonnay can be jazz and country. It's for different times, maybe even for different ages. Sauvignon Blanc, that's why people are obsessed with this one or with the sinceres. There's something about it that brings out the best in us. Of course, this is one of my favorites for the price. It goes well with sushi, tacos, Friday night, Shabbos benach, the perfect fish. It goes with so many different dishes. And it even goes good by itself. So, that's Sauvignon Blanc. Comment on which grape you want to know next, and remember the more we taste the more we know.
