Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

A fresh and bright Sauvignon Blanc, with aromas of lemon peel, fresh cut grass and green herbs. Light bodied, smooth and vibrant with mouthwatering acidity and tart citrus on the palate and more of those green herbaceous notes. The finish is smooth and clean, enjoy this with spring veggie dishes or white fish in a lemon butter sauce.
Thierry Delaunay 2020 Sauvignon Blanc is an Old World style Sauv. Blanc and great value under $17. Fresh and bright with aromas of lemon peel, fresh-cut grass and green herbs; dry, mouth-watering and medium-bodied with bright gooseberry, lime-lemon zest, mineral, tropical fruit notes and so refreshing on the palate. Pour with sauteed white-fleshed fish in a lemon butter sauce. The Delaunay family have made wine here for five generations. - Community Wine Reviews
