Romania may not be the first country you think of for Sauvignon, yet with “some of Europe’s greatest cool climate vineyards” (Hugh Johnson), it’s perfectly suited. And if we had to choose just one to convince you, it's racy, citrusy Paris Street.

The Wine
Sauvignon Blanc is one of the world’s best loved white grapes, whether from New Zealand’s trendy Marlborough region or from its traditional homeland in Sancerre and Pouilly Fumé (in France’s Loire Valley). These wines are pretty pricey, but in Eastern Europe there are some excellent though little known areas perfectly suited to Sauvignon Blanc and offering much better value. Paris Street is a perfect example. It comes from Transylvania, a remote region separated from the rest of Romania by the Carpathian Mountains and the Transylvanian Alps. Lean and minerally with zingy citrus fruit character, Paris Street is great with fish and shellfish dishes such as grilled sea bass on a bed of fennel, prawn and crab risotto or smoked salmon.
"A terrifically crisp and refreshing Sauvignon Blanc with great lemony zing. Hits the spot"
