We Asked 17 Wine Pros: What’s the Most Underrated Sauvignon Blanc? (2025) The Sauvignon Blanc section at any local wine shop is typically dominated by just a few countries, each with its own star producers and usual-suspect growing regions that monopolize attention (often well deserved). But for every big name, there are so many others that deserve their due — and they usually come with less demand and a lower price tag. We posed the question to wine professionals from around the country: What Sauvignon Blancs are we missing out on? Instead of the ubiquitous Sancerre, they told us, look to the many other appellations elsewhere in the Loire Valley. https://vinepair.com/articles/wa-wine-pros-most-underrated-sauvignon-blanc-2025/
