Great value whites, reds and fizz on the UK high street, chosen by the Observer’s wine writer
The Co-op Verdicchio dei Castelli de Jesi
Marche, Italy 2021 (£6, The Co-op)
The verdicchio grape grown in central Italy’s Marche is always a good bet for a budget dry summer white with character. This has classic lime-tinged green apple and subtly honeyed almond and a wash of easy, seafood pasta-friendly freshness.
