Under a Fiver
2007 Asda Argentinian Malbec
Asda sources its malbec from the Argentinian giant Trivento, a good move since
Trivento, as part of Concha y Toro, is master of everyday reds like this
vivid, juicy, berry fruity wine.
£4.12, Asda
Under a Tenner
2007 Crego e Monaguillo Godello, Monterrei
This Spanish dry white, made in Galicia's Monterrei district, is spritz-fresh
and crisp with spiced pear and stonefruit flavours; seafood-friendly.
£8.49, or buy 2 = £7.49, Majestic
Splash Out
2006 Shaw and Smith Adelaide Hills Shiraz
A smart, vibrant red with the distinctly savoury, peppery undertones of
Adelaide Hills' cool climate vineyards.
£18.49, Noel Young, (01223 844744), Philglas & Swiggot (020-8332 6081)
