Buying, Storing, & Serving

Sauvignon Blanc should be served chilled, but not ice cold.

Almost all Sauvignon Blanc is ready to drink when released, although some of the better French examples can age for up to five years. A general rule of thumb is fresher is better.  

Store bottles in a cool, dark place. While it is now common for wine makers to use plastic corks or screw-top closures which may be stored vertically or horizontally, those with the traditional corks should be laid on their sides to keep them moist.
