and I'm a wine expert, TV presenter on the Wine Show,

You can still find bargains with wine in supermarkets,

however, the best bargains are always gonna be

from lesser-known regions and lesser-known grapes.

So instead of maybe going for that Sancerre,

which is Sauvignon Blanc grape from Loire valley,

go for that Touraine, which is actually two kilometers away

from Sancerre, made from Sauvignon Blanc,

Or, go for something like the Malvasia grape,

which is awesome, if you really like Pinot Grigio,

go for Malvasia, from Central Europe and Eastern Europe,

because no one really thinks about buying from there,

which sounds really obvious, but there's a lot of things

which go into the price of a wine once it hits

packaging, excise duty, and so therefore,

what the average person spends in a supermarket,

only 60p of that bottle will be spent on wine.

However, it's amazing how if you go up to

That's actually money spent on the juice of that wine,

so even though you're going four times in value

of the five pounds, you're getting 19's worth

increase in terms of quality, which is quite interesting.

So, definitely that is useful to keep in mind.

I'd also say look for wine buyer's choice,

If you go into somewhere like a Waitrose, or wherever,

and they say buyer's choice, that will tend to be,

because it's the buyer putting their name to it.

And it also is good if you want to try something

a bit different, because they're trying to guide people

to try either a new region or a new grape.

So therefore, you tend to be getting really good value

for money, and you can discover something really exciting.

Also, supermarkets' own, you can also find good value for.

There was a time when supermarkets would have multiple,

the general trend is to have less of them,

They, again, are putting their name to that house wine.

So they want it to be of a certain standard,

even if it's not going to completely blow your mind.
