Lovers of bright, fruit-fresh Sauvignon should search out the wines of Chile, a country that has more than proved its skill with this grape. 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.
