6 whites to perk up your palate

From sauvignon blanc to chardonnay, these wines will cheer the chill

- 

Bleak midwinter, gloomy grey skies - it's no wonder thoughts turn to sunny destinations and a fresh, bright white to spark a smile.

Something flavoursome and fruit-filled, beautifully balanced, and hits all the right notes with fish pie, seafood linguine, creamy risotto, salads or something spicy.

From herbaceous and zippy, to scented and sun-kissed, these food-friendly whites chime with feelgood vibes...

1. Terra Organica Sauvignon Blanc 2024, Chile, £9.40, Ocado

A firm favourite in the award-winning Terra Organica range - organic, vegan and planet friendly - this stylish savvy blanc offers a delicious combination of enticing citrusy aromas with hints of freshly cut grass and gooseberry; mouthwatering with lime-edged fruit, minerally note, crisp acidity and zesty finish. Fantastic with ceviche or spicy stir-fry.
