How to serve Borell-Diehl Sauvignon Blanc Trocken

Allow 5 minutes from open to pour.

  1. Open and pour. Open and pour directly. No decanting required for this style.
  2. Serve at 8-10°C. Cellar temperature (8-10°C) is the band for this style. Warmer pushes alcohol forward; colder dampens aromatics.
  3. Glassware. Use a smaller all-purpose white glass: the bowl shape rewards the wine's structure.
  4. Pair with. Goat cheese salad, Spargel. Match the wine's structure to the dish's fat and salt.
