Fiol, Extra Dry, Prosecco, Veneto, Italy NV
£15.50-£18.95 Amazon UK,
ND John, The Great Wine Co
Fiol was founded by three friends, with the aim of filling the gap between luxury and affordable Prosecco. It’s a cut above many on the shelves, offering elegant, crisp green apple fruit, warm lemon and acacia notes. There’s also an accomplished rosé. AW Alcohol 11%
Laurent Brotte, Grand Vallon Grande Réserve Blanc, Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Rhône, France 2020
£19.99 Aldi
White Châteauneuf is seldom seen at this price, and this vintage is a step up from the slightly flabby 2019, with zippy acidity enlivening the concentrated pear, peach and blossom notes, plus fine structure and nutty, oaty oak tones. TG Alc 13.5%
Eylo, Rueda, Spain 2020
£10.99
