Under a fiver

2006 Soave Classico

Asda manages somehow to put this soave on the shelf for less than £3.50. This juicy example of the garganega grape is refreshingly zippy. £3.48, Asda

Under a Tenner

2004 Monasterio de Santa Ana Crianza

Pepper and subtle vanilla oak spiciness combine with dark brambly fruit at the core of this well-crafted blend from the fine Casa de la Ermita. £8.99, Tesco

Splash Out

2006 Tobiano Pinot Noir

The Pacific-influenced cool climate of Chile's Casablanca Valley is now home to the pinot noir grape. This fragrant strawberry-scented red with its opulent cherry fruitiness is a fine example. £12.99, introductory offer, from £14.99, M&S
