2023 Oyster Bay Sauvignon Blanc

Here’s a Costco staple Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand’s famed Marlborough region that we had yet to post about. Almost hard to believe.

A couple years ago we posted about Oyster Bay’s Pinot Noir which is also delicious, and frequently mentioned to be among the best wine buys at Costco. We don’t disagree. It’s a great Pinot for only $12.

We’ve enjoyed this Sauvignon Blanc quite a bit over the years. It’s perfect for a hot summer day, crisp, acidic, refreshing…everything you expect from NZ Sauvignon Blanc.

For fans of Matua, Kim Crawford, Nobilo or Whitehaven, you’re going to find a lot to like here if you’re not already tuned into this wine. It has that signature NZ grassiness; medium body, nice tropical fruit flavor, tangy acidity and a great finish.

We’re big fans of this one among this style of wine. And you can’t beat the $10.49 price tag. Wine.com sells it for $14, discounted from retail of $16. Cheers to last few weeks of summer.
