Best wine deals to shop in October, from supermarket offers to vegan bottles

Save on your summer tipples with 20 per cent off our best supermarket crisp white wine. Journalist and wine expert Katie Brook recommends the Albariño as an alternative to more popular sauvignon blanc or pinot gris white wines. Its “salty edge” also makes it a perfect pairing for seafood dishes.

One of our favourite budget-friendly white wines is on sale for 33 per cent off at Waitrose. Our wine columnist, Aidy Smith, described this sauvignon as “delish” in his review of the best white wines, saying it had “zero bitterness, beautiful green strokes of gooseberry, kiwi, lime and lemongrass, and an exquisite light crispness”.

If you want the feeling of sipping Whispering Angel without the £25 price tag, it’s worth checking out our alternatives, chosen by wine experts and sommeliers. One of our top picks, Asda’s amusingly named Screaming Devil Côtes de Provence rosé, is £10 off – while it may not look like a deal, this is the cheapest you can buy it for right now.

Assistant travel editor and wine expert Emilee Tombs describes it as “tropical on the nose, with a touch of ripe mango complementing tart red fruits.” She recommends pairing it with fresh summer dishes such as grilled fish or a watermelon salad.

If you fancy dipping your toe into the world of orange wine, we’ve spotted an offer on our favourite entry-level bottle, which brings the price down to £21. “It's a very fruit-forward wine, which is evident on the nose and the palate,” said wine expert, Emma Henderson, in her review of the best orange wines. “It has aromas of gooseberry and mango, with a slight sweetness on the palate, too, with a hint of marzipan.”
