Choosing Sauvignon Blanc

Here is a good rule of thumb when choosing Sauvignon Blanc in a restaurant or supermarket - drink youngest available.

This is especially true of New World Sauvignon, which should be very clear and very crisp/citrusy - as it ages it becomes more yellow and loses its zing.

My advice would be to only choose bottles from the present or previous year to ensure that they are fresh and zesty.
