Tell me what is the most amazing £10 red or white wine

[Jelly67]

It's been a year since I've had a few drinks (pregnant then looking after newborn).. so when I eventually do get to have a few glasses of wine I want to make sure it's delicious and not a complete waste of a 'night off'!

What would be your favourite red/white for around £10?

Red: I like Rioja, Malbec, Merlot
White: Pinot Grigo, Sav blanc

Thanks!

Villa Maria Sauvignon Blanc is my current favourite. Think it's about £8 or 9 but I always get it when on offer.

My favourite red is 19 Crimes. It’s so soft and luscious. It’s around £8 I think.

Trapiche pure Malbec £8 from coop. It's a lovely fresh tasting unoaked wine.

Jim Barry the Lodge Hill Shiraz. Usually a tenner in various places. 2014 vintage is particularly lovely but 2015 is good too and currently £7 in Tesco.

Agree Jim Barry and Villa Maria wines are lovely. We like the Campo Viejo Riojas too.
Always buy on offer to get more for your tenner, the 25% off 6 deals come round fairly often. I don't know if they still do it but Sainsbury's used to take the 25% off any other discounts too so the bargains were good!

Agree Villa Maria Sauvignon Blanc or an on offer Chablis. Delicious.

I love The Ned. It's not fancy, but it is delicious, and a Marlborough, and very pretty...

On the reds my neighbour is a wine master and says the Carta Roja is a fantastic wine for the money. Looks a bit naff to me owing to the gold wire on the bottle. I get in Sainsbury's.

I was going to say Villa Maria too. The Sauv Blanc is gorgeous.

19 Crimes great too - don't forget to scan the label with your phone and hear the criminal's story! What fun!

White Burgundy. Unbeatable.

I second The Ned - Ocado do it, often reduced to 8.99 a bottle. Lovely lychee flavours, my favourite SB.

Torres vina sol is nice about £8ish.

Ooh or jack rabbit Pinot

I had a bottle of dry white from Lidl called Carpinus that was really good - it was about £9.

For whites I like Vinho Verde - very light and fresh portugeuse wine - not high alcohol.
Albarino, Gavi, Viognier lovely and interesting alongside the Sauvignon Blancs (they are the most popular white wine for a reason).
I also like a white burgundy, Rioja or Chablis.

Just make sure its well chilled.

Red wine - I like a Beaujolais Villages, Cairanne, or Montepulciano. Softer, berry fruity reds. Yum. Softer than Rioja and the fullest body reds, but a bit more variety than the Malbecs and Merlots.

@leccybill - Scan the label?!! I had no idea! I’ve got two empty bottles in my recycling bin. I’m tempted to fish them out.

Yellow Tail do one called Jammy Red. It's very very moreish!

Lidl Wine Tour. Bargain and generally winners.

Don't think you can say Malbec or Chablis or whatever - there will always be a duff one and then you will feel ripped off, although knowing what you like does help I will never drink another Chardonnay as long as I live

This one is great.

Try again.

Oh it did work. £7.99.

White burgundy for a tenner sophiesellerman?

@NC4Now Search your appstore for the 19 Crimes app. Scan and listen! There's a different story for each of the 19 criminals!

Amazing! I’m definitely going to do that.

I have been buying this for years and haven’t found anything which takes as nice. It’s a Cabernet Sauvignon California blend. Usually on offer from Sainsbury’s, Morrison’s or Waitrose between £7-8. Always stock up when in offer.

I’ll be trying some of the suggestions on here next!

I love NZ sauvignon blancs but for some reason not Villa Maria! It tastes too green to me!
