Along with Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc was one of the first fine wines to be bottled with a screwcap in commercial quantities, especially by New Zealand producers. The wine is usually consumed young, as it does not particularly benefit from aging, as varietal Sauvignon Blancs tend to develop vegetal aromas reminiscent of peas and asparagus with extended aging. Dry and sweet white Bordeaux, including oak-aged examples from Pessac-Lognan and Graves, as well as some Loire wines from Pouilly-Fum and Sancerre are some of the few examples of Sauvignon Blancs with aging potential. Wine experts have used the phrase crisp, elegant, and fresh as a favorable description of Sauvignon Blanc from the Loire Valley and New Zealand. Sauvignon Blanc, when slightly chilled, pairs well with fish or cheese, particularly chvre. It is also known as one of the few wines that can pair well with sushi.
