One of the best Canadian Sauvignon Blanc: Elegance, substance & taste

Description: Bright straw in colour with a medium+ intense nose. This wine features Jasmine, light gooseberry, pink grapefruit, honeydew melon, lychee, tangerine and kiwi. Medium body and with good acidity and a very long length.

Negatives: None

Interesting Point: Made in the Alsace style

*In Support of…* Magnotta Winery is donating a portion of the proceeds from the sale of this wine to the G. Magnotta Foundation for Vector-Borne Diseases to establish Canada’s first research centre for vector-borne illnesses including Lyme Disease.

Drink now on its own or in the next 5 years.  This wine can easily be paired with a vast variety of foods but when enjoyed with a simple item like green olives it elevates this wine to a silky complex experience on the palete.
