I tested supermarket wines at £8 a bottle - winner would still be cheap at £15
Martini Asti Italian sparking wine£8, Sainsbury’s
Lower alcohol, apricot yoghurt-scented fizz. It’s sweet, but sip it with white chocolate, salty cheese or pavlova and you’re in for a taste sensation.
Score: 3/5
Coteaux Varois en Provence rosé £8, Asda
Great food wine and a killer with salad, cheese and charcuterie platters. Get ready for summer. This should become an Asda classic.
Score: 4/5
Specially Selected Cremant D’Alsace£7.99, Aldi
These French fizzers offer fabulous value for money given their posh flavour profiles and toasty complexity. It would be cheap at £15, so at half that price it’s unbeatable.
Score: 5/5
Irresistible Solo Spanish rosé £8.50, Co-op
Super-pale with a little more fruit when you sip than you might find in a French Provencal rosé. Highly gluggable and great on its own or as an aperitif.
Score: 4/5
Porcupine Ridge Shiraz£8.50, Sainsbury’s
A great example of how a grape tastes in the South African winelands. This would be brilliant to enjoy with a midweek burger or a Saturday night spag bol.
Score: 3/5
Porta 6 white wine £8.25, Tesco
Made with a blend of local white grapes, which produce a whack of peachy, white chocolate flavour that manages to remain crisp and fresh. A great foodie white.
Score: 5/5
M&S Gold Label Chardonnay £8, M&S
Vanilla-scented rather than oaky and cloying, this is all about youthful, ripe fruit salad flavours and a slick of saline keeping it fresh.
Score: 4/5
