Reuilly is a real gem for lovers of classic Loire Sauvignon. It offers the dazzling mineral finesse of nearby Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé, but its wines come at a more affordable price. It's a bit of a rescue story, in fact. In the 1970s, its wines almost disappeared and the little that was produced was only enjoyed locally. Enter Claude Lafond – the saviour of Reuilly. He encouraged the planting of vines, established a shared winemaking facility for all Reuilly producers, and built an impressive, modern winery at Domaine Claude Lafond.

Now run by his daughter, Nathalie, the domaine is farmed organically and continues to go from strength to strength – just like Reuilly itself. La Raie is crisp and elegant. Ideal with goat's cheese.

Winemaker Jean-Marc Sauboua has made wine all over the world. He's won loads of prizes too. But Bordeaux was where he was born and raised and where he's searched out the grapes for this snappy fresh white. He's worked with an award-winning ecological cellar on Bordeaux's Right Bank, Les Vignerons de Tutiac in the Côtes de Bordeaux. This is where you'll find some excellent clarets, but Jean-Marc was out to prove that white grapes could perform just as well. It's pure Sauvignon Blanc, taken from a variety of vineyards in both Côtes de Bourg and Blaye, each parcel contributing a different character to the wine. Bright, lemony and intense, it's an elegant white, as you'd expect from Bordeaux. Chill and serve with panfried white fish or solo.

Atakarma is a star from Matetic, a winery whose consistent quality has seen it listed in Wine & Spirits magazine’s Top 100 Wineries of the Year four times now.

Nestled in the Colchagua Valley, they source their fruit from across Chile's finest grape-producing valleys.

The Sauvignon for this white was harvested from the banks of the Tinguiririca river, where winds keep the grapes cool and aromatic, with a sparky freshness.

Winemaker Felipe Vial cool fermented this white, giving it a little lees ageing to lend a creamy textured edge.

With a crunch of citrus and tropical fruits, it's an ace apéritif.

Why no name on the bottle? For many reasons, wineries often have a small surplus of fine wine that they can't bottle themselves, and need to find a home for quickly. When they do, they know who to call – us! We bottle it under a special 'Limited Release' label. That way, the producer's prestigious brand is protected, but our lucky customers get to enjoy a stunning wine at a fraction of the price it would normally command. It's a win-win all round!

Sometimes the producer doesn't want anyone to know who's behind the wines. Other times, (like this time!) they are happy for us to reveal their identity to our customers in our emails or on our website.

Did someone say bargain? This is a premium Sauvignon from the boutique biodynamic and organic Matetic winery in Chile. Their wines are stunning (they regularly win many awards), and if this bottle featured their name it would sell for so much more. But here's the thing! It doesn't – so it's yours at an AMAZING price for the quality.

It's worth looking out for this 'Limited Release' label! We reserve the 'Limited Release' label only for exceptional one-off parcels of wine that need rescuing. Both quality and price need to be 'knockout' impressive, and this dazzling Chilean Sauvignon fits the criteria perfectly.

Bío-Bío beautiful … All the grapes are from the cool Bío-Bío region (although the label isn't allowed to say that). Over 400 kilometres south of Santiago, it's one of Chile's most southerly wine regions. It lies close to the Bío-Bío river and receives both plentiful rainfall and early morning fog. Hence there's a real green, grassy edge and minerally freshness to this delicious white. As one of our customers say, it's very similar to a Sancerre:

"Almost Sancerre. Got a trial parcel of this wine, which arrived yesterday, tasted it last night and I'm ordering a dozen this morning. I guess that says it all! " (Customer review)
