From a classic Sauvignon Blanc to a luscious Rosé, why not celebrate opportunities to nurture and preserve your togetherness?

“The truth about adult relationships is you really have to put in the effort to see each other in real life, to truly connect one on one.” says relationship expert Jen Kirsch.” Sure, a phone call here and there is all well and good, but it’s the tactile time together that allows you to share moments, deepen your bond and connection and which allows you to make memorable moments.”

Here, we’ve detailed our favourite Kim Crawford wines that you can share with friends old and new.

The Catch-Up Wine: Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc

When you’re reuniting with that OG bestie—the confidante who’s been there since day one—toast to the occasion with an ice-cold Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc. Fresh, juicy and ripe with tropical fruit flavours, this wine—expertly crafted in New Zealand—is great for a catch-up. Even as your friendship evolves and life gets in the way of weekly get-togethers, it’s a sweet (but actually vibrantly acidic) reminder of old times.
