Sauvignon Blanc, Framingham
£18.95
Framingham has been named winery of the year by The Real Review (New Zealand’s top wine publication) for the last two years. They make stunning wines! This Sauvignon is a little bit different to most, with the wine seeing extra skin contact and some ageing in old barrels; this gives the wine a lovely texture and a savoury edge alongside those classic Sauvignon flavours. A very ‘food-friendly’ version of Kiwi Savvy Blanc!

Pouilly-Fuisse, Chateau de Chaintre, Burgundy, France
This estate is owned by the Paquet family who have been making wine in Pouilly-Fuissé since 1957. Yannick Paquet is in charge here and he makes the wine in a very fresh style, with only a small portion of the wine seeing any oak ageing, just enough to give a little richness but not for oaky flavours. The fruit is all handpicked, and the vineyards are farmed organically. Delicious with poached salmon or simple grilled fish dishes.
Kekerengu Coast Sauvignon Blanc, Astrolabe, Marlborough, NZ
Simon Waghorn is one of New Zealand's most respected winemakers. He is a real perfectionist and his Sauvignons have amazing purity and depth of flavour. The Kekerengu Coast is my favourite, showing a lovely crunchy, mineral texture alongside the bright, zingy fruit and a really long finish. Classic Marlborough Sauvignon of the highest order.
Picpoul de Pinet, La Mirande
Picpoul is having something of a fashionable moment right now, everyone seems to have woken up to the fact that this is one of the most refreshing, delicious, reliable and affordable wine styles around.
This version, from the organic La Mirande estate is pure pleasure, offering real depth and flavour (more than most), whilst still retaining that fresh zippyness that we all love. A versatile food wine and a good fridge stand-by, it goes well will most seafood and salad dishes.
Reserve de Gassac Blanc, Mas de Daumas Gassac
This is a cracking organic wine! Made by the Guibert family at the iconic Mas de Daumas Gassac in the Languedoc, this is exceptional value for money. An unoaked, aromatic blend comprising of Viognier, Chardonnay, Terret and Muscat, this is creamy and peachy with a crisp, fresh finish. Perfect with seabass with fennel or other herby fish dishes. Organic.
Cotes de Gascogne, Duffour Pere & Fils,
This family producer based in central Gascony (South-West France), is considered one of the best in the area. Their wines have a depth of flavour which is often lacking here; their philosophy is firmly quality over quantity! This is a blend of Colombard, Gros Manseng, Ugni Blanc & Sauvignon Blanc (quite a mouthful!); It’s clean, fresh and modern in style, aromatic with a long, dry finish. Very quaffable and great value.
