Best Sauvignon Blanc Wine Rated 90+ Points For Every Budget

Sauvignon Blanc wine is known for having racy acid and grassy, tropical fruit aromatics. The best Sauvignon Blanc wine is grown in a more full bodied style in California, but seems to have found it’s perfect match in New Zealand where the cooler temperature but longer growing season allows the grapes to fully ripen while staying bright and crisp but showing notes of passion fruit and the classic grapefruit aromatic profile.(Read More)

The original home of Sauvignon Blanc is in the old world region of Burgundy, more specifically in the Loire Valley. Loire Valley white wines come from regions such as Sancerre and Pouilly Fume where the grassy tones are mixed with more mineral driven notes. Whether you prefer the fruit forward grapefruit character of Sauvingon Blanc white wine from New Zealand or the mineral, almost flinty style of Sancerre, you can browse our selection of the best Sauvignon Blanc rated 90+ points and read expert descriptions about each bottle.

2010 Robert Mondavi

"This is a delicious one. Dry and racy in acidity, it has deep citrus, tropical fruit and gooseberry flavors. At this price, it’s one of the best Sauvignon Blancs on the market."

2010 Heritance

"Made without oak, this is a beautiful, stylish and elegant young wine to drink now. Blended with some Sémillon for buttery fat, it highlights lime, green grass, white peach and white pepper flavors, brightened with brisk acidity. Achieves an unusual level of control and complexity, especially at this price."

2011 Tabali

"Sourced from a single vineyard planted on limestone and located just a few miles from the Pacific Ocean. It offers up an alluring perfume of grapefruit, spring flowers, and a note of herbs. This is followed by a crisp, lively, concentrated wine that delivers more complexity and length than the Reserva bottling."

2011 Cloudy Bay

"Focused and pure, offering a tangy expression of balanced lemon, white peach, tangerine, passion fruit, melon and green tea notes. This is powerful in its persistence and juiciness, yet maintains an air of elegance."

It is extremely pleasing to interact with businesses that actually do care that they deliver what they promise for the customer—and more. I have sampled the 2009 Sojourn and found it excellent—a good recommendation on your part.
