Koha Sauvignon Blanc gets a 'Best Buy' in Wine Enthusiast Magazine

We are absolutely delighted to share that our Koha Sauvignon Blanc (2024 vintage) has just been awarded a 'Best Buy' title from Wine Enthusiast Magazine in the USA. 

We are so proud of this new acclaim. Best Buy wines are categorised as; "Products that offer a high level of quality in relation to price. Wines meriting this award are generally priced at $20 or less, and are designated Best Buys after surpassing 85 points and a specific quality-to-price ratio benchmark."

This is the second time our Koha Sauvignon Blanc has been awarded a Best Buy title from Wine Enthusiast, with the 2021 vintage receiving the same accolade. 

Check out the rave review for the 2024 vintage below: 

"Comparatively subtle notes of nectarine, passion fruit and citrus (with an herb-speckled underbelly) flow to a straightforward palate. There’s some nice roundness—even a pithy quality—to the texture, which, when combined with the prickly acidity, equates to versatile, food-friendly sipping. Banville Wine Merchants. Best Buy. —C.P."

We know that now, more than ever, people want to make smart wine buying decisions and make every dollar count, so getting a 'Best Buy' endorsement from one of the world's leading wine publications is a fantastic tick of approval.

"Versatile, food-friendly sipping"

It is great to see that Christina's review noted our Koha Sauvignon Blanc as offering; "versatile, food-friendly sipping". In today's wine world, we know that more and more people are reaching for wines that are easy-drinking, refreshingly crisp, and will go well with whatever you're having for dinner. 

We love to pair this crisp, bright wine with a range of fresh seafood dishes, especially mussels, clams, fresh white fish or salmon, or for more decadent choices, try it with some local oysters, lobster, scallops, or even some umami-laden uni (or kina, as we call it in New Zealand). 

Available in 30+ USA states

With distribution and points of sale in more than 30 states, and shipping nationwide to most of the USA, with a sharp price point sitting between USD$14 - 18, there's never been a better time to try this highly recommended 'Best Buy' sipper.

With stockists including Wine Library, Gary's Liquor, Total Wine & More, to Yianni's in Virginia Beach and Beverage Warehouse in Michigan, you have tonnes of great options to purchase a bottle to try. 

Find your local USA stockist today & try this "Best Buy" for yourself!

If you'd like to list or stock either of these acclaimed drops, please get in touch with our US importer, Banville Wine Merchants. Both wines are also available in South Korea with our importer Dong Won Wine Plus. Get in touch if you would like to import this stunning wine - we'd love to hear from new potential partners!
