£7.99 French Sauvignon Blanc – Bargain or Disappointing? (Episode 553)

In this episode of Wine Mastery, we taste a French Sauvignon Blanc blend from Côtes de Gascogne, priced at just £7.99. At first glance, this seems like a bargain — because let’s be honest, French wines are often associated with higher prices. So seeing one under £8 immediately raises expectations… and questions. Is this a hidden gem? Or is there a reason it’s so affordable? Let’s find out. 🍷 The Wine A Sauvignon Blanc-led blend with additional grape varieties, designed to create a softer, more approachable style compared to a classic, sharp Sauvignon. 👀 First Impressions The colour is fresh and bright, showing: • Pale lemon tones • A hint of lime/green edge So far, so good — exactly what you’d expect from a crisp white wine. 👃 On the Nose This is where things get interesting… Instead of the typical zesty, grassy Sauvignon Blanc profile, the aromas are much more muted: • Light citrus • Subtle freshness • Very little intensity In fact, it doesn’t strongly resemble a classic Sauv

Sauvignon Blanc from Macedonia-Greece

At Plori Greek Taverna on Long Island we highlight a Sauvignon Blanc offering from a vineyard located on the mainland in Macedonia-Greece, near the Albanian border. It is interesting that traditional French grapes are now being planted in Greece, where native indigenous grapes have typically taken precedence. The selection is a great match for a dinner of fresh fish + vegetables. #greekwine #greekrestaurant #sauvignonblanc #longislandfoodie

Canada's oldest Gamay vines, and this is what it tastes like 🍷🍁 #canadianwine #gamay #winelovers

Join us for FREE to discover a new Canadian winery each week! https://www.carlswineclub.com Today, we're heading to the beautiful Naramata Bench in the Okanagan Valley to taste a true piece of Canadian wine history: Hillside Winery's Old Vines Gamay Noir. Planted back in 1983 by Czechoslovakian refugees Vera and Bohumir Klokocka, this single-vineyard Founder's Block is considered the oldest Gamay planting in all of Canada. Vera planted Gamay because she loved Beaujolais Nouveau and wanted an early-ripening grape — and today, under the guidance of winemaker Kathy Malone, those mature, self-rooted vines produce a serious, cru-style Gamay that is absolutely stunning. While we taste the 2022 vintage here, it's great to know that these incredible vines even survived the legendary January 2024 deep freeze (temperatures plunged to -30°C, wiping out 99% of fruiting buds across the Okanagan). Most likely because Vera's original decision to use self-rooted vines meant they could be re-trunke

White Wine Grape Native to Greek Island of Crete

Here at Plori Greek Taverna on Long Island, the wine list features Greek selections including this offering from Crete, produced from native white wine grape Vidiano, which is akin to Viognier/ Vermentino. What a great pairing for our appetizer course of zucchini chips + spinach pie. #vidiano #greekwine #longislandfoodie #cretegreece #greekrestaurant
