Touraine is a Sancerre-like gem, and a brilliant value Sauvignon Blanc. Vibrant and elegant, with a real mineral edge, the palate is full-flavoured with freshly squeezed lemon mingling with white fruit, pear and green apples ending with racy, fresh notes. This sauvignon blanc hails from the small estate of Cédric and Dorothée Allion, produced in accordance with the Terra Vitis principles established in the Beaujolais region three decades ago. This method emphasizes rational viticulture over tradition. The Allions keep vineyard interventions to a minimum, avoiding chemical additives. The quality of their wine is evident: it's a notably refined sauvignon blanc, characterized by its crisp and almost steely sharpness, and rich with flavors of gooseberry, peanut, and nettle. It stands out as a clear, remarkably well-priced alternative to New World sauvignon blancs.

This is Riesling at its most vibrant—a zippy, mouthwatering drop that is full of life. This has flavours of green apple, lime zest and a zippy citrusy energy. There’s a touch of ripe peach in the background, adding just enough roundness to balance out the crisp acidity. Juicy, opulent and delicious. Austria might be best known for Grüner Veltliner, but Ferdinand Mayr proves that Riesling is a star here too. A former musician turned winemaker, Mayr swapped symphonies for cellars in the late '90s, bringing his artistry into the bottle. Working with top growers across Niederösterreich and Burgenland, he crafts wines that are bright, expressive, and full of personality. If you love German precision with a touch more charm, this is one to have on your wine rack.

A gorgeous Vinho Verde that is very different to the most we are familiar with. It is less tart and dry, and more about the round ripe orchard fruit like peaches and apricots. This 100% Avesso from Vinho Verde, Portugal, is a bright, zesty gem. In the glass, it’s a gorgeous citrus-straw color, immediately pulling you in with vibrant aromas of white fruit and delicate floral notes. The first sip is all about balance—freshness, minerality, and acidity perfectly in harmony. It’s medium-bodied with a lovely texture that’s supported by juicy fruit, leading to a crisp, energetic finish that leaves you wanting more. Fermented in stainless steel and aged on fine lees for four months with batonnage, this wine has a depth that pairs beautifully with seafood dishes, light pastas, or semi-cured cheeses. Serve it chilled between 7-10°C and let it brighten up your day with its clean, refreshing style.
