The Unique Appeal of Kosher Sauvignon Blanc
High in crisp acid and famous for its "green flavors," Sauvignon Blanc is among the most-loved white wines globally. With no tannins and a medium body, the fruit flavors shine in this dry wine.
Sauvignon Blanc has become the second most popular white wine in the United States, largely thanks to its flourishing presence in New Zealand. The ideal climate in this region nurtures the distinct characteristics of the grape while allowing for more affordable production, making it a favorite among wine enthusiasts.
While there are simple, less costly Sauvignon Blancs, there are also complex wines that are well-deserving of aging in your cellar. You'll end up with a calm but complex wine that works well with a huge range of foods or is excellent on its own.

The History of Sauvignon Blanc Wines
The Sauvignon Blanc grape was developed in the Bordeaux region of France during the 18th century. It may have taken its name from the French word for wild, which is sauvage. This is due to the plant's appearance, which looked like the wild grapevine and grew as prolifically.
This grape is thought to be a cross between the Cabernet Franc grape and the Savagnin grape. However, research into the history of the grape is ongoing. What is clear is that the wine was favored in the Bordeaux region and later spread worldwide.
While this grape has been adopted widely, it is often at its best in colder climates. It can be grown and has unusual regional tastes in warmer areas, but it is often preferred for colder microclimates.
Flavor Profile
Sauvignon Blanc is high in acidity, low in sugar, medium in body, and famous for green flavors. The specific flavor you get from this wine will largely depend on the terroir and climate it was grown in, the time of harvest, and other factors determined by the winemaker.
Less ripe Sauvignon Blanc will lean towards lime and grape, while more ripe wines will have peaches and flowers. Characteristically, these wines are appreciated for their unusually green tastes, which range from grass and gooseberry to bell pepper or spicy pepper. This wine is also known for having more minerality than other wines, which can add to its unique drinking experience.
Food Pairings for Sauvignon Blanc
When pairing this light wine, it is important to choose light dishes potentially enhanced with the herby flavors often not present in Sauvignon Blanc.
Chicken, turkey, and a variety of seafood make great options. With cheese, soft options are best, including goat cheese or even sour cream. Flavorful herbs and vegetables, from zucchini to mint, are also lovely to pair with Sauvignon Blanc.
Aging Recommendations
As it is so high in acidity, Sauvignon Blanc is suitable for aging for up to seven years, which is relatively long for white wine.
