What’s the best white wine?

Supermarket shelves are lined with white wines. Sometimes all you need is the best white wine to present with a meal or give as a gift. As we did with our suggestion of the best red wines, here’s the recommendation from Bonnievale wines. If you don’t know the brands, your safest bet is to shop by wine grape variety.

Of course, there are many, even more than you’ll encounter in local stores. But you’ll come to learn that there are a few stalwarts you can rely on. Between Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadel, you’re covered with the best white wine, whatever the occasion.

Chardonnay

Chardonnay white wines are varied beasts that may have been matured in barrels or not. That gives each category different characteristics in flavour and aroma. You’ll mostly hear tasters refer to words like popcorn, butter, lime, lemon, grapefruit, apple, pineapple and vanilla.

It’s awesome because just saying Chardonnay is sexy. You might drop into a conversation something like, “Did you know that Chardonnay is a native from Burgundy …(pause) Yes, Burgundy in France.”

Make my mind up for me: Place that order for the Bonnievale Limited Release Chardonnay 2021 now.

Sauvignon Blanc

White wines made from this variety are commonly described as being reminiscent of fruit salad, melons, gooseberries, guavas, passion fruit, and even asparagus.

It’s the go-to grape because it says you’re sophisticated and cool, even when you’re in shorts and flip-flops. (Perfect attire for a weekend visit to the Bonnievale wine cellar, by the way).

I want some of that right now: Bonnievale’s got you covered with great white wines in this category. Get the Bonnievale The River Collection Sauvignon Blanc 2022, Bonnievale The Vale Sauvignon Blanc Brut, and the Bonnievale NEAT de-alcoholised Sauvignon Blanc 2021. 

Muscadel

Not all muscadels are created equal. We know them as sweet wines, but you get them bone-dry too. Words you’ll hear characterising this white wine include berries, orange blossoms, pear, mango, jasmine and honeysuckle.

It’s a winner because you like breaking the rules and challenging assumptions about you. An air of mystery hangs about you like a feather boa.

This I must have: Get the Bonnievale DUSK Sweet Rosé Perlé NV.

Now, try them all. Just sign up with the club, the Bonnievale BestBox wine club.
