THERE’S nothing like a hearty glass of red during the winter.
But why blow your budget on pricey bottles when there are fantastic supermarket offers that deliver on taste and price?
Here are some ways to keep your wine rack full and wallet happy.
CELEB FAVE: Love the idea of sipping the same wine as the stars?
Tignanello from Tuscany is a celebrity favourite, but at around £150 a bottle, it’s hardly budget-friendly.
Aldi’s Toscana Rosso offers a similar taste sensation for £7.69.
SHIRAZ SAVER: The Penfolds Shiraz Bin 28, known for its bold flavours and ties to the famous Barossa Valley Kalimna vineyard, is on offer at Tesco for £27 with a Clubcard, down from £31.
However, M&S’s Barossa Shiraz is a solid alternative for just £10 a bottle — perfect for any Aussie wine fan.
FRENCH FANCY: Châteauneuf-du-Pape is a staple of wine lovers, famed for its rich heritage and flavour.
Prices vary wildly, but supermarket own-brands deliver.
Asda Extra Special Châteauneuf-du-Pape is £19.75, while Morrisons The Best Châteauneuf-du-Pape comes in at £19.
MERLOT MAGIC: Bordeaux wines can be notoriously expensive, but if you fancy a good Merlot, check out Oceans Tutiac Merlot at Sainsbury’s for £10.
It’s been described as a “great, less-expensive alternative to traditional Bordeaux wines”, without compromising on taste.
RIOJA DEAL: For a Spanish twist, the Baron de Ley Gran Reserva 2017 is a festive favourite at £19.99 at Waitrose.
But Tesco’s Campaneo Old Vines Tempranillo 2022 is a steal at just £6.50 — and pairs beautifully with Spanish cheese if you’re planning a cheese and wine night with friends.
STOCK UP AND SAVE: Fill up your drinks cabinet for less.
Head to Asda, Morrisons, Sainsbury’s or Tesco to get 25 per cent off when you buy six bottles or more of selected wines.
Cheers to that!
