yeast selection for white

[muskie003]

I'm going to attempt to make my first white wine ever this spring - sauvignon blanc from buckets (Chilean). Just wondering if anyone has advice on yeast selection that they prefer - or ones to certainly not use! Or any advice for a first attempt at a white for that matter......

thanks!

This pairing guide has been very helpful for me: http://www.morebeer.com/public/pdf/wyeastpair.pdf

I'd probably go with BA11 or QA23.

FWIW I used D47 in a batch of Pinot Grigio I made and was pretty happy with it but I've never done a side by side to see what the difference is.
