Briege
Reliable purchase and a favorite to share with colleagues. The wine's richness offers a fascinating experience, appealing to those who don't typically enjoy Sauvignon Blanc. The flavor profile is described by flavors of saline, mineral, and guava, with citrus, herb, and buttered bread undertones. As we continued to savor, the wine's nuances were revealed, featuring honeysuckle and oak. A amazing wine, indeed.
Jinyu
Lively and refreshing wine with a delightful tropical fruit and honeydew melon character, ideally complemented by the citrus nuances that linger on the palate. The finish is well-balanced and refreshing, making it a top notch pairing for a variety of seafood dishes, showcasing oysters, crab cakes, and Norwegian salmon.
Gulgun Vanuytven
Dimensional and engaging wine with a nose that's evocative of petrol and minerality, even by bright and refreshing accents of limestone, lemon and lime zest, tropical fruits, honeysuckle, and subtle oak touches on the finish. A medium tartness provides a lively and uplifting quality to the wine.

Illumination Sauvignon Blanc is praised for its vibrant tropical fruit flavors, citrus notes, and balanced acidity. Many appreciate its refreshing and lively character, making it suitable for seafood pairings. While some find it a standout with complex layers, others note occasional over-oaking. The wine's minerality and smooth finish are consistently highlighted, though a few reviews mention inconsistencies in quality.
