We're delighted with Noël Bougrier’s new release Le Fief du Temple, with a Gold medal for 2020 and 2021. It's all Pinot Noir, just like delectable (and pricy) red Sancerre. Classic Loire, with crushed raspberries, ripe red cherry and subtle spice.
Vouvray is a Loire classic, featuring the great Chenin Blanc grape. Great because it has such dazzling freshness and ageing ability. Not that this wine needs time – it's delicious now, with its intense lemony-bright fruit and touch of sweetness.
Your favourite, grassy-green and lemony fresh white has just received an upgrade. Harvesting grapes from a small estate vineyard, the family cellar have made a limited amount of top-quality, gooseberry-fresh, super-intense Sauvignon Blanc.
