Description
Sauvignon Blanc/Chardonnay from California is a blend of two grape varieties that traditionally produced two very different styles of wine. Chardonnay being rich, round and buttery. While Sauvignon Blanc is more fresh, aromatic and zingy. Somewhat surprising then, this non-traditional blend is produced almost as widely as the varieties plantings. It crops up in France (particularly Cheverny), various parts of Italy, Spain, Israel, California Australia, Chile and South Africa, with a wide range of results.
Food Pairings: Rabbit and pistachio terrine, Smoked Salmon, Sushi, and oven baked Salmon are but a few pairings with are unique blend.
