Torrent Bay Sauvignon Blanc
Zesty passionfruit and crisp citrus from New Zealand, Sauvignon Blanc at its most vibrant.
New Zealand's Marlborough region essentially invented a new template for Sauvignon Blanc, one defined by intensely aromatic tropical and citrus fruit, cutting acidity, and a pungent, vivid freshness that sets it apart from any other Sauvignon Blanc-producing region in the world. Torrent Bay captures that character from one of Marlborough's most productive growing zones.
The wine is abundantly aromatic: passionfruit, grapefruit, fresh lime, and a thread of fresh herbs on the nose, with a crisp, vibrant palate, lively acidity, and a clean, zingy finish. It is one of the easiest food-pairing wines in the shop, works with grilled seafood, spicy dishes, fresh salads, and goat cheese with equal ease. A perennial crowd-pleaser.
Pairs well with: Grilled Shrimp, Goat Cheese, Sushi, Spicy Thai Food, Fresh Green Salads
