In this episode we re-visit New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc to see if we still enjoy it as we did 10 - 15 years ago. We compare 3 different Savvy B’s at different price points. They are a Sauvignon Blanc, Oyster Bay, Marlborough, New Zealand ($18), a 2023 Sauvignon Blanc, Central Otago, Amisfield, New Zealand ($25), and a 2021 Te Koko Sauvignon Blanc, Cloudy Bay, New Zealand ($90 from Kent St Cellars). Trent tries some palate training with Jason and Jason reflects on why he is not buying wine as often from the big retailers.
