Buying wine

I find Laithwaites really good, I've never had a bad wine from there. Better than Virgin or Naked wines IMO. You can get pretty good deals if you sign up for one of their introductory cases and then cancel any subscription afterwards.

Majestic often have good deals on and deliver.

I think that either popping to Majestic or ordering online is good for them, their staff are really good at recommendations. Naked and Laithwaites always have offers floating around (I have an £80 off a case of 12 offer if you want one?) and I'm happy to give you a bunch of Naked recommendations as I order from them regularly.
Also, Averys in Bristol do some excellent cases and deliver and they're always worth calling the shop and giving them a brief. Or popping in if you can because it's really cool. They're lovely and have some really interesting tasty wines. They're where I did all my wine courses.

We usually order from Waitrose cellars when they have an offer on.

Also, Gannet has had some really nice wine from Aldi

I do love a bit of Aldi wine. It's variable but some of their wines are really excellent, as are Lidls.

Will send you a voucher now.

The LIDL wine tour is meant to be excellent (and apparently if you time it right they sell them off at brilliant prices when it changes, but I’ve never been lucky).

We buy from Majestic - there's a warehouse down the road from us. I also like M&S wine especially their Found range.

Yes, both the M&S Found range and the Waitrose Lost&Found ranges are good for interesting and different wines.

Also never been lucky at Lidl like that Pip, but have managed to find sparkling shiraz in Aldi before and man, I love a sparkly red.

Sparkling red is one of my favourites (drinking one right now!) but it’s so hard to find! Majestic have a good one at the moment actually.

Delicious. I may pop over there tomorrow. Thanks

I love sparkling red. It's going to be my Christmas lunch accompaniment this year.

This is a nice sparkling red https://www.sainsburys.co.uk/gol-ui/pro ... iraz-750ml

Generally, because they deliver, I buy from Majestic
