NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Delaire Graff Sauvignon Blanc is a delightful white wine that showcases the best qualities of the Sauvignon Blanc grape variety.On the nose, it offers a vibrant bouquet of tropical fruits such as passion fruit, pineapple, and guava, accompanied by zesty citrus notes of lime and grapefruit. These aromas are further enhanced by subtle herbaceous undertones, adding complexity to the wine.
On the palate, Delaire Graff Sauvignon Blanc is crisp and refreshing, with a lively acidity that balances the fruit flavors beautifully. The tropical fruit notes continue to shine, accompanied by hints of gooseberry and a touch of minerality. The wine has a medium body and a well-rounded mouthfeel, leading to a clean and lingering finish.
It pairs wonderfully with seafood dishes, particularly shellfish and grilled fish. It also complements fresh salads and goat cheese-based appetizers.
