Great value Sainsbury’s and Co-op fizz
Having cast my eye over two promotions that started this week – at the Co-op and Sainsbury’s – here is some well priced (and well made) champagne to help you toast the arrival of spring.
A Trio of Tasty Whites from M&S
The M&S promotions that started yesterday combines well made whites at entry point prices with at least one unconventional wine that will startle and delight by turns
Good value Easter treats at Aldi and Sainsbury’s
Here is a quartet of wines retailing around £10 – but worth rather more – and part of MidWeek Wines aim to focus on value at several price points – not just the lowest.
The Finest* range scores well in the new Tesco promotions.
Over a hundred Tesco wines began a three week price reduction yesterday or this morning and here are the “must buy” components. Outside Scotland the promotion coincides with a further 25% multi buy offer that brings some of these commended wines down to a mere £4.50 a bottle.

Budget Wines at Ongoing Prices
Finances are often a bigger worry than usual in the period after Christmas so here is my “Double Five” review of budget wines; the quest is for five decent offerings at ongoing prices of less than a fiver – not just as part of a time limited “special offer”. While these are definitely not “here […]
February Tesco Promotion
Here are one or two highlights from the recent Tesco promotion – with the focus on the very straight forward “crowd pleasers” most of us need sometime! They include decidely un-bland pinot grigio (the usual complaint) along with fully (and delightfully) reconstructed riesling. Although many of the discounts on these promotions have now expired, the […]
Majestic February offers
The Majestic Spring Promotions are now under way. To underline their commitment to less expensive wines, it contains a reasonable selection of wines around £5 or £6. Here, then, are some highlights from the promotion across a range of price points. Unless my notes say so the quoted prices apply when you buy two or […]
