With bottles starting from just £5.99, the budget supermarket has a decent range of wine dupes for those seeking top-shelf taste without the top-shelf price.
But, many are special buys, so be quick, and get the last of the summer wine while it’s still in stock.
Like Whispering Angel? Try Chassaux et Fils Sainte Victoire Provence Rosé (£11.99)
At around half the price of Whispering Angel (currently £22.50 in Waitrose) this classic rosé is bursting with red berry, watermelon, citrus, raspberry and pear flavours. Fresh, dry and perfectly balanced, the rosé delivers both elegance and flavour, and saves £10.51 (47%) on the Waitrose option.
Like Jam Shed? Try Kooliburra Jammy Red (£5.99)
Through a meticulous drying process, this red wine achieves a remarkable depth of flavour. The patient technique yields a captivating profile of bright raspberry, juicy ripe plum and intensely dark black cherry. At £5.99, it’s £2.51 cheaper than Jam Shed, which retails at £8.50 RRP, saving £2.51 (30%).
Like La Vieille Ferme? Try Le Petit Poulet Rosé, aka the Aldi ‘Chicken Wine’, (£6.49)
Aldi has had its chicken wine in both bottles and boxes this summer, a budget-friendly alternative to La Vieille Ferme Rosé – at 24% less than the pricy La Vieille Ferme.
