MARKS & SPENCER
BARGAIN BUYS
WHITE
Marks & Spencer Grillo 2017, Sicily, Italy (£7)
A refreshing dry white laced with tangy lemon and lime and a subtle note of aniseed. A ‘house white’ for the holidays.
RED
Soleado Cabernet Sauvignon 2017, Central Valley, Chile (£5 from 4 Dec)
A bargain for parties with fresh cassis and mulberry flavours and an easy-going style.
SOMETHING SPECIAL
WHITE
Florent Rouve Viré-Clessé 2016, Burgundy, France (£14)
White burgundy is a Christmas classic, pairing well with the turkey and any seafood starters. This one tastes of apples and mandarins with a long, toasty finish.
RED
Kendal Lodge Cabernet Sauvignon- Merlot-Cabernet Franc 2016, Stellenbosch, South Africa (£10)
Impressive blend with ripe cassis and spicy, peppery twists. One for roast red meat.
