Sauvignon Blanc
This crisp and elegant Sauvignon Blanc is both zesty and refreshing.
Pays D’Oc IGP, Languedoc-Roussillon, France
‘C’est le Pays du Vent’ the locals will tell you…. The land of the wind! Bordered by the Pyrenees mountains to the south (which channel cooling breezes from the Atlantic) and the Mediterranean to the east (with its warm summer temperatures) the Languedoc-Roussillon region of France
is wonderfully located to produce world class wines.
The environmental attributes are important, as the colder Atlantic influence is vital if you want crisp Sauvignon Blanc and they compliment the fabulous wine making team at Château Canet helping to craft their magic!
The Sea Change Sauvignon Blanc is refreshing, vibrant and will definitely deliver for all those Sauvignon lovers. It’s not overdone but refined - you’ll get the best of everything. A classic Sauvignon in an easy drinking style that will allow you to selflessly pour another glass.

Tasting Notes
The first things we notice when we enjoy a glass of Sea Change Sauvignon Blanc are aromas of aromatic green citrus and grapefruit, set alongside beautiful balance and structure. A dry white, it’s fresh and full of summer zest. The initial flavours of fruit and blossom are layered with a subtle crispness that offers a sophisticated Sauvignon experience.
Food Pairings
It can be enjoyed on its own or with food and it pairs perfectly with any seafood, white meat or softer cheeses. As a favourite pick… we’d have to go with something like barbecued Sea Bass served with buttered greens. Beautiful.
When to drink
Best consumed when youthful and fresh and always lightly chilled.

About Seachange
Seachange want to combine their love of great wine with their desire to do something to help protect our oceans.
Turning the tide on the juggernaut that is plastic pollution is only going to happen if we all make changes, even small ones, and this is where the wine you choose can play a role.
With the removal of the unnecessary plastic wrap around the cork, the use of renewable plant-based closures and the paper for the labels coming from certified sustainable forests and made partially from grape waste, combined with a donation to marine charities from every bottle sold they think choosing Sea Change does make a difference.
Find yourself a new favourite wine from Sea Change, a social enterprise making waves of change with their eco-friendly wines.
These winemakers are committed to creating exceptional drinks and caring for our oceans in equal measure. Look closely at the beautiful hand drawn illustrations on each bottle and you’ll notice the marine animals depicted have bits of plastic inside, reflecting the effects of plastic pollution.
Keen to be part of the solution, Sea Change put real thought into their own packaging. There are none of those plastic wraps around their bottle tops and the labels are a mix of paper from certified sustainable forests and grape waste too. Even the corks are made from a renewable plant-based material.
Sea Change also gives back to conservation charities who help protect marine animals too, making a donation for every bottle sold. All this adds up to a lot of small ripples of change and one big positive impact per bottle. In fact, they've now donated a whopping €500,000 to charity.
Better still, there’s a great variety in their award-winning range. So you can toast to making a difference whether you’re partial to a prosecco, reds like negroamaro, whites like sauvignon blanc or a rosé.
