Under a Fiver

2005 Gran Familia Rioja Tinto, Bodegas Castillo de Fuenmayor

A crowd-pleasing red at a scene-stealing price, this Spanish tinto blends tempranillo and garnacha. £4.99, Co-op, Sainsbury's, Tesco; £5.99, or buy 3 = £3.99 each, Thresher

Under a Tenner

2006 Los Molles Carménère, Viña Tabalí

The winemaker Felipe Müller is a firm believer in Chile's carmé*ère grape, which brings a peppery undertone to the blackcurrant and plum flavours. £7.49, Marks & Spencer

Splash Out

2006 Maverick Trial Hill Riesling, Eden Valley

Eden Valley at its best: powerful, lime-like, floral scents make this the perfect match for sashimi, grilled salmon or tuna carpaccio. £13.95, Lea & Sandeman
