As the bank holiday weekend approaches, supermarkets are offering a range of wine deals to help shoppers stock up for less. With many retailers running promotions such as 25 per cent off mixed six bottles, there are plenty of purse-friendly options available. The focus this year is on value, with several notable selections under £20.
Waitrose is featuring a variety of wines as part of its 25 per cent off any mixed six offer, running until 26 August 2024. Highlights include Le Val Albariño from Spain's Rias Baixas region at £13.50, described as crisp and racy with notes of lemon curd and yellow apple. Another standout is a South African Chenin Blanc at £11.25, offering ripe stone fruit and a subtle saline finish. For those seeking something different, a Georgian Rkatsiteli at £7.50 provides an accessible introduction to one of the world's oldest wine-producing countries.
Waitrose also offers a chillable red blend of grenache, syrah and cinsault at £9.56, with bright cherry flavours and a refreshing character. An inexpensive Bordeaux claret is available at £5.44, making it a practical choice for everyday drinking. All these prices reflect the 25 per cent discount applied at the till.
Sainsbury's has also joined the deals, with a 25 per cent off mixed six offer available to Nectar cardholders until 24 August 2024. Among the picks is a Marchesi Antinori red at £12.38, featuring ripe plum, blackberry and vanilla spice notes. A Pignoletto frizzante-style wine is priced at £4.50, offering a budget-friendly alternative to prosecco.
Asda has reportedly gained recognition in the Decanter World Wine Awards, achieving the largest medal haul among supermarkets this year. Shoppers are encouraged to take advantage of these limited-time offers before the weekend ends.
