Sip of the Day

October 12, 2020

Day #286 of the year.

The Seeker Sauvignon Blanc New Zealand

October 12th celebrates Indigenous Peoples Day. The banks are closed, the kids are out of school, and you may or may not be enjoying an extended weekend. While the air is crisp and the leaves are still turning, I’ll take this lovely day off with a glass of The Seeker Sauvignon Blanc. Pair this wine with an afternoon citrus salad made of arugula, gorgonzola cheese, walnuts, and fresh apples you picked (or grabbed off a fruit cart in my case) this weekend.

ORIGIN

Marlborough and Martinborough, New Zealand

Grapes

Sauvignon Blanc

Tasting Notes

Pale lemon straw with a green hue. Vibrant aromas of fresh lemons and limes, green apple, thai basil and a touch of floral honey. Slides across the palate seamlessly with crisp fresh fruit notes.

Food Match

Ideally suited to fresh seafood, salads, citrus-sauced dishes, ocean voyages and park blanket reconnaissance.
