What to drink with a barbecue, an alfresco dessert, or just a little something to make the summer days swing: the finest reds, whites, roses and fizz for the season
Pasico Old Vine Monastrell Shiraz, Jumilla Spain 2013
(£6, Sainsbury's)
A great-value barbecue or chorizo matcher from south-eastern Spain, this soft, juicy but gutsy tinto blend of local speciality monastrell (known elsewhere as mourvèdre) with shiraz is dry but full of sweetly ripe spicy plummy fruit.
