Meet the 2024 Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc

Described as “bright and balanced, with citrus aromatics, a smooth finish, and refreshing versatility,” the 2024 Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc delivers everything fans of the varietal love. Expect lively notes of lemon zest, grapefruit, and green apple, anchored by a soft minerality that adds depth without overpowering. It’s a wine that pairs beautifully with simple weeknight meals as well as celebratory spreads, from grilled vegetables and seafood to creamy pastas or roasted chicken.

Crafted for everyday dinners and special gatherings alike, this sauvignon blanc is crisp, effortless, and approachable. It’s a bottle to keep chilled and ready, whether friends drop by unexpectedly or you’re enjoying a quiet evening at home. Its versatility also makes it an ideal gift or a thoughtful addition to any celebration.

Why Marlborough?

Marlborough, located at the northern tip of New Zealand’s South Island, is renowned worldwide for its sauvignon blancs. The region’s cool climate, long sunny days, and well-draining soils create the ideal conditions for producing crisp, aromatic wines with vibrant fruit flavors. Grapes from Marlborough often carry bright citrus and tropical fruit notes, balanced by the acidity, which makes the wine perfect or pairing with a wide range of foods.

How to Serve It

As Ever’s 2024 Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is best served well-chilled, ideally between 45°F and 50°F, to highlight its bright citrus notes and refreshing acidity. Chill the bottle for about two hours in the refrigerator or 20 minutes in an ice bucket filled with equal parts ice and water.

For the perfect pour, use tall, narrow white wine glasses, which help concentrate the wine’s aromatics and keep it cool longer. Pair it with light, seasonal dishes such as grilled shrimp, goat cheese salads, roasted asparagus, lemony pasta, or soft cheeses like brie or burrata. It also works beautifully as an aperitif, accompanied by a simple charcuterie board or a bowl of crisp green olives. Snag an idea from Markle’s show, With Love, Meghan, and put together a gorgeous crudité for guests to enjoy.
