Water, water everywhere

I know that Midweekers are a determined bunch but this pair the BBC featured in Yorkshire must win the prize for not letting anything get in the way of a quiet drink!

If, incidentally, you need something to float your boat during the current rainy season, seek out 2014 Domaine Jacky Marteau Touraine Sauvignon Blanc (£9 at M&S).

With grassy, up-front, lime centred fruit and tangerine based depth, it sits somewhere between Marlborough and Sancerre and offers some of the best vibrancy and intensity I can remember from the middle Loire.
