Wine: Something For The Weekend

Under a Fiver

2006 Gérard Bertrand Muscat
Scented dry muscat from the south of France's Languedoc Roussillon – created by ex-French rugby star Gérard Bertrand makes for a refreshingly juicy and spicy dry white.
£4.99, Tesco

Under a Tenner

2007 Casillero del Diablo Pinot Noir
Devotees of Chile's good value Cono Sur Pinot Noir can now turn to a new pinot in Casillero del Diablo's range, a sumptuously strawberryish red with classic fragrance and red berry fruits – a Chilean pinot that's hard to beat.
£5.99, Oddbins

Splash Out

2005 Cline Cashmere, California
A blend of the Rhône grapes, mourvèdre, syrah and grenache, California can do Châteauneuf too, in this case a richly fruity, heady blend of textured raspberry and damson plum fruit well cut by acidity and fine tannins.
£12.49, Oddbins
