Sauvignon Blanc is popular for its refreshing qualities but that doesn’t mean it is one dimensional. Can we actually keep Sauvignon Blanc for a year or two? Can we consider serving it with anything other than a green salad or seafood canapé? Some wines we drink while young and vibrant and others we mature to enjoy when their complexities have fully developed. Some are delicious as an aperitif and others are exceptional partners to food.

Our 2021 Pierneef Sauvignon Blanc is one of those wines that works in both instances! Its crisp minerality makes it a refreshing choice, but with ample complexity it is also a versatile option on the dinner table. The ideal wine for March’s balmy weather!

Comforting Choices

Creamy salmon pasta with spinach, capers and lemon is the perfect comfort food for warmer weather. The 2021 Pierneef Sauvignon Blanc cuts through the creamy richness and complements the acidity of lemon and capers as well as leafy spinach.

Interesting flavours

Asian flavours are popular for beautifully balancing saltiness with sweetness, acidity, bitterness and even some heat. They are, however, tricky to partner with wine. The 2021 Pierneef Sauvignon Blanc is an excellent partner to the complexities of these Cantonese-style pork and prawn dumplings.
