Under £5

Croix Milhas Rivesaltes Ambré

If you're looking for something sweet, strong and different that won't cost an arm and a leg, this amber gold little vin doux naturel from the South of France is just the ticket.

£3.99, normally £7.99, half-bottle, Tesco

Under £10

2006 Viñalba Malbec Reserva

A worthy trophy winner last year (Decanter best single varietal under £10), this spicy little number is the quintessence of bright, juicy blackberryish Argentinian malbec.

£9.99, or buy 2 = £7.49, Majestic

Splash out

2007 Puligny Montrachet Les Chalumeaux

Because she/he's worth it? A special occasion demands a special bottle and this ultra-stylish chardonnay from Jean Pascal & Fils fits the bill with its nutty oak and oatmealy undertones.

£35, M&S, major stores
