With warmer weather comes Al Fresco dining, what better way to enjoy your meal and great company than with lively Sauvignon Blanc. Grown throughout the world, this expressive grape produces many different styles of wine depending on where it is cultivated.

From Loire, France (flint and mineral ) to California (fig and melon) and South to New Zealand (grapefruit and citrus), there are styles to fit any person’s individual tastes. Try pairing a grilled shrimp salad with a gem from New Zealand, a 2011 Oyster Bay Sauvignon Blanc for $11.99. Having oysters on the half-shell? Try the most wonderful Napa Valley offering from Markham for $10.99. Sauvignon Blanc is a great cheese-pairing wine as well, so try a smooth goat cheese with a bottle of Pierre Chainier ‘1749’ for $7.99.
