Night in

2011 Loimer Grüner Veltliner, Kamptal

Fresh, floral and fragrant with a peppery note, the purity of peach and apple fruit in this summery, dry bio-dynamic white gives it a citrus-crisp aftertaste. £14.50-£16, Morrisons

Dinner party

2010 Dog Point Pinot Noir, Marlborough, New Zealand

Behind the berry-fruit fragrance is a juicy mulberry and loganberry quality with a silky texture and mouthwatering freshness. £27.50, Berry Bros & Rudd

Splash out

2010 Tesco Simply Garnacha, Bodegas Borsao

You only get 30p's worth of wine after tax and costs in a £5 bottle, but this bright Spanish Beaujolais-alike delivers a gluggy quaffability. £4.99, Tesco
