Night In

2012 Bodegas Manzano Mas de Victor Graciano

Made entirely from the distinctive graciano grape, there’s a pepper-spicy aromatic element to this youthful, bright rioja. £8.99, Sainsbury’s

Dinner party

2012 Steitz Trocken, Rheinhessen

A fresh, dry German riesling with lively citrus aromas enhanced by a squeeze of juicy, bitter-lemon flavour. £13, Chix & Buck, Brixton, chixandbuck.com

Splash out

2010 Escarpment Pinot Noir Te Rehua, Martinborough

From Larry ‘Mr New Zealand Pinot Noir’ McKenna, this delivers a delightful mouthful of summer pudding red fruits with spicy oak. £30, Marks & Spencer
