I have drunk better - but at a much higher price! Even so, I can see me returning for a few more bottles.Originally Posted by julesd68

You might be interested in the 2010 Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi available from M&S at £7.49.
This is well worth the extra over the Tesco version (at £4.80 a bottle)
However if you want to push the boat out a little, I can thoroughly recommend an Austrian white: Gruner Veldliner.
Available from Tesco at £7.49 a bottle.

That's a shame Julian. It seems that various branches of supermarkets have some autonomy when it comes to offers.
Alex (Alex_UK) some time ago posted about a very attractively priced Margaux seen at his Aldi. Sadly it was not available at my local branch.

You know I type too quickly and don't proof-read carefully enough! Verbum sapientii satis.
Anyway, I'm halfway through a bottle of the Co-0p 2010 Pouilly - Fuissé, so I don't care.
