I’d have to agree, red in the autumn/winter for me. Really enjoying Malbec (Argentinian) at the moment and craving a glass as I have none in

It’s probably not one for everyone but I like the Red Three Mills Reserve, it’s pretty smooth and to me is almost Vimto! Plus only about £3.50 a bottle which certainly helps

Have only ever seen it in Asda and B&M so not the easiest to find.

We drink a lot of red, but are still wine heathens. We buy loads of £3-4 a bottle or when in France.

We've d*unk much more expensive stuff, but there is often little to no difference.

It's interesting when in France, as lots of foody people also drink very modestly priced wine.
