Producer-director Stanley Kramer’s slapstick epic is the ultimate movie caper, an experience as lively as a bright and citrusy glass of this Sauvignon Blanc. The first and only comedy filmed in the Cinerama widescreen format includes an amazing array of talent, from Spencer Tracy and Phil Silvers to Ethel Merman, Jack Benny, and Jonathan Winters in his first film role.
THE WINE
THE LEGACY
THE REGION
France’s Loire Valley is Sauvignon Blanc’s spiritual home, but in the last 20 years Marlborough has really catapulted the grape into the global spotlight. Along the banks of the Wairau River on the northern tip of New Zealand’s South Island, the region’s warm days, cool nights, and rocky, heattrapping soils produce that trademark balance of ripe, tropical-fruit flavor and crisp, mouthwatering acidity.
WITH FOOD
With its intense, tropical-andcitrus-fruit flavors and racy acidity, New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc makes a refreshing aperitif. Serve a glass to your guests as they walk in the door and keep a selection of goat cheeses (the grape’s classic match) nearby. At meal time, this will be a delicious partner for seafood – from fresh crab to green-lipped mussels (a New Zealand specialty).
