This weekend I plan on picking up a bottle of Otto's Constant Dream Sauvignon Blanc. This is is a crisp and fruity Sauvignon Blanc that is produced by a husband and wife team in Brooklyn. I discovered this wine two weeks ago at The Vintage Grape on Third Avenue. This bottle usually retails for $14.99, but you can find it in store or online at The Vintage Grape for $11.99. If you like the widely sold Oyster Bay Sauvignon Blanc I think you should give this one a try! And if you want to read more about this interesting local husband and wife wine producing team, I suggest reading this New York Times article that explains their journey into wine production.
Because Sauvignon Blanc is typically a lighter more acidic white wine it does not go as well with red meats or heavier dishes with butter or cream. I would suggest trying it with a Greek salad for dinner this weekend as a compliment to the Mediterranean flavors and acidic feta cheese in the salad. Other good options would be a roasted chicken with fresh herbs or a grilled white fish.
