In spite of the fact that there is so much wine in the world that wineries everywhere don't know what to do with it, one grape variety seems to be in such high demand that grape prices are rising, and consumers may experience shortages of their favorite brands.
Sauvignon blanc is that wine, and its current success is quite a turnaround from decades ago when almost no one paid any attention to it. Over time its name has been changed so it could sell better, and it has gone through so many variations that some consumers may be confused as to what it's supposed to be.
