Under a Fiver

2006 Tesco Finest Denman Semillon
Youthful lemony undertones and a refreshing blade of citrusy acidity are typical of semillon in its natural Aussie habitat of the warm, humid Hunter Valley.

Under a Tenner

2007 Limarí Sauvignon Blanc

A fine peppery red from this producer with a growing reputation.
