Great 'Your fave sub-£5 wines' Hunt

Highly recommend Tesco's Red Curvee Prestige normally around £3.99 a bottle, but goes on offer occasionally at £2.99. The white is also very good!

Lidl's South African Winebox as mentioned above now down to a tenner...£2:50 a bottle equivalent :beer:

Most of the BOGOF and half price deals are just a con. The wines were never worth £7.99, or whatever. Frankly they're barely worth half that.

I've thought that too for ages - especially Morrisons - I would never pay £7.99 or more for those particular wines that they say are "now half-price!"

Whilst I agree that some of the wines are optimistically priced to then be knocked down by 50% (and I would n't purchase at that price) , nevertheless the Wolfblass Yellow Label range currently on offer at Morrisons for £3.99 is generally sold in most outlets for around £8 to £9,making these superb Australian wines a great buy!

Casillero del Diablo Cabernet Sauvignon- from Tesco. was 5.99, but on 3 for 10, less 5% if you buy 6. And, very very nice.But hard to find now. Just bought some Hardys Crest Cab Sauv, was 10, down to 4, less 5% for 6. Will try tonight and if nice stock up with more for xmas drinking and presents. Hoping that Tesco will do a 25% off 6 offer soon, like Sainsburys did recently. Last year they did and i save a fortune!!

My favourites cheap wines are from Argentina (Malbecs) and Chile (Carmenere).

Today at Tesco; White Castillero del Diablo Sauvignon Blanc 2008 (Chile) £4.99. Very nice with a faily strong finish

Red Cabernet Sauvignon Carmenere 2008 (Chile) £4.49 A nice rich red.

Sauvignon Blanc 2009 (Chile) £4.49 A lighter white with a smooth finish.

Recent good buys now around £10 a bottle from N.Zealand reduced below £5 were; Ocean Edge S.B. 2008
Nobilo Sauv. Bl. 2008
Wairau Cove Sauv Bl. 2008

Worth looking out for if they do another reduced offer. These are really nice wines.

2008 Errazuriz Estate Shiraz, Chile

4.99

Waitrose

Reduced from 7.99 til Dec 1st this is a nice oaky Chilean Shiraz that will make a great accompaniment to a nice steak. Very good bottle of wine for the cash!

Name of the wine Silver Rock Chardonnay
Year 2008
Price £2.99
Where to buy Tesco
Why you like it. £2.99 for a palatbale wine. This is a Bulgarian wine so maybe a "wine snob" won't like it as it's not from a fashionable estate. Try it while its £2.99 cos Tesco will certainly jack this price up once they see it selling!!!

This deal was given the highest recommendation in the Times last weekend too.

I find Tesco to have some okay ish wines like those mentioned in this thread but Waitrose is a cut above when it comes to sourcing good wines.

Another great bottle to go with steak is the Phebus Cabernet Sauvignon at 6.59 (sometimes down to 5.49).
