There is always a touch of excitement about a new Lidl promotion and, for the first time, this one puts a focus on Spain and Portugal. I have taken a slightly broader brush, however, to bring you wines that range from well made, tasty whites at under a fiver to an impressive claret from a very good vintage
Here is a collection of six well made wines, starting at less than a fiver, at a seriously underestimated retailer many commentators are finally beginning to appreciate.
With the so-called premium discounters still stealing headlines, here is my current top three from Aldi – plus, of course, great value options from Sainsbury’s and Morrisons in my new “Good Buys Elsewhere” feature.
Check out my new “Good Buys Elsewhere” feature that has now been added to my regular single retailer focuses.
British shoppers are so conditioned to “money off” bargains that undiscounted wines (however good) seldom get a proper look in – here are three illustrations of why folk need to recalibrate that thinking to avoid missing out on well made wine at great value ongoing prices.
Wimbledon fortnight signals June turning into July and words like strawberries and champagne spring onto everyone’s lips – so here is a great way to go with the flow (or at least the bubbles) yet keep the bank manager smiling too
Don’t let the absence of fresh promotions this week put you off – here are wines from eight High Street suppliers that punch above their price point even without “money off” labels.
With all the current excitement about discounters and the new strategies being adopted by Tesco, it is easy to overlook what (literally in many cases) is almost on your doorstep. Here though is some excellent wine from surprisingly close to home.
Here is a group of wines on promotion that nicely live up to the retailer’s sales mantra about offering quality you would expect at prices you wouldn’t.
For a while now, Tesco has dominated the great value, own label wine scene but a new name is on that category’s 2016 International Wine Challenge winners list – see who they are, and what they offer!
Lidl promotions usually mean a wide ranging selection of good (and, sometimes, eye popping) value. It is hard to keep repeating that trick but this collection includes unusual fizz, a well priced sweetie and great prices on Chianti, Barbera and Navarra.
With aggregated discounts that offer floral rose and Italian graciano at £4.50 and award winning prosecco at £5.63, there is much to love about the time limited 25% off deals that start today at Sainsbury’s.
While the trio of sparklers will catch many eyes, you can also find here tasty Languedoc viognier, classy rosé and top Oz red to titillate taste buds and delight palates.
With traditional Chianti, rose influence Pinot noir and Portugal’s take on Albariño, there is something for most tastes in these new arrivals at a wine retailer with 200+ UK stores and a free delivery service for six or more bottles.
Meet a brand that sells 8 million bottles a year (from a standing start five years ago) and cuts through the worst of the snobbish pomposity that sometimes afflicts the world of wine.
With a huge network of stores and a well sourced range of wines, here are a couple of great value, classy wines from the most convenient of convenience stores.
