Under a Fiver
2007 Misterio Oak Aged Malbec, Finca Flichman
Made from pure malbec and aged in oak, this is a ripe, but not overpowering, juicy red made from Argentina's signature grape, with generous plum supported by damsony acidity.
£4.99, Morrisons

Under a Tenner
Veuve Edouard Champagne
Treat yourself to a cut-price champagne this Easter: this attractive example doesn't pretend to be Cristal, but has light, crisp, youthful and lemony flavours.
£9.99, normally £19.99, Somerfield, until Tuesday

Splash Out
2001 Clos du Mont Olivet Châteauneuf du Pape
This classic southern Rhône blend has a leathery aromatic complexity and mellow tannins, with spice-infused richness and a succulence that avoids blandness.
£14.99, Majestic
