This was a bargain wine purchased, frankly, because I assumed it to be an NZ Sauv blanc- but it’s from France, more specifically Corsica. I found it pretty good with quiche, which matched distinct acidity. This wine tastes much like a New Zealand but lacked any of the passionfruit or gooseberry aromas I enjoy in my favorites. My main recommendation would be to pay a few extra bucks and buy a real New Zealand Sauv blanc - there are so many better than this French poser.
