Zuccardi Brazos De Los Andes Cabernet Sauvignon 2023, Uco Valley, Mendoza, Argentina: This wine boasts impressive vigour yet remains elegantly restrained rather than overbearing.

Gérard Bertrand Côte des Roses Sauvignon Blanc 2024, Pays D'oc, Languedoc I.G.P., France: Hailing from Languedoc’s diverse soils—where limestone, schist, and gravel mingle to create a unique terroir—Gérard Bertrand Côte Des Roses 2024 Sauvignon Blanc arrives in a striking, rose-embossed bottle. This dry, medium-bodied wine bursts with bright tropical fruit notes, lively citrus zest, and a hint of delicate herbs, all set against a defined mineral backdrop. On the palate, it maintains a refreshing crispness with a persistent, stony finale that speaks to its regional roots. An excellent choice for pairing with fresh shellfish or a vibrant vegan pasta featuring asparagus, lemon, and peas, this wine truly captures the spirit of its origin. Sauvignon Blanc food pairings: seafood Alfredo, salads topped with chilled shrimp or goat cheese, herbed quiches. Drink: 2025 - 2027 23906 13% XD 750 mL $19.95 Score: 90/100. May 2025.
