What is another name for Sauvignon Blanc?

Explanation:
Sauvignon Blanc is a white grape variety. In Bordeaux, the white wines are labeled by the region, and a white wine from that area is described as White Bordeaux. That means wines made primarily from Sauvignon Blanc (often blended with Semillon) from Bordeaux can be referred to, in shorthand, as White Bordeaux. So, among the given options, White Bordeaux aligns with the idea of Sauvignon Blanc in the sense of a Bordeaux-produced white wine, rather than a different grape variety. The other choices are distinct grapes—Chardonnay, Sauvignon Gris (a separate, related variety), and Pinot Blanc—so they don’t serve as an alternative name for Sauvignon Blanc.
