Don’t let the cute little Yorkie on the label fool you. This is a delicious, flavorful, balanced, real Sauvignon Blanc. Today’s Cru Vin Dogs 2013 Yorkshire Terrier Sauvignon Blanc is a real stunner. An incredible value!
This wine is a classic New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, with fresh grass and dried straw out in front. As the wine warms, it reveals fresh pineapple, lychee, acacia flower, Meyer lemon and white peach, with a hint of alfalfa and river rock.
If you’re looking for a very flexible white wine for the summertime, one that is a fantastic aperitif wine but also great with food - without breaking the bank - you’ve found it!
