The search for the perfect sub-?6 wine

Anyone want to help me in my predicament?

For something unusual but actually rather lovely - Somerfield has a wine called Tarrango by Browns Brothers - its currently on special at ?3.9 (normally 5.99)

Its unique selling point? A red that you chill.

Lovely!

Shall try. Thanks BB.

How about a white?

great article in the guardian several weeks ago about wine and the prices we pay for them.basically you get what you pay for. the crux of the matter being pointed out by an "insider" is that if you see a wine reduced from 6.99 to 3.99 one naturally assumes its a great bargain but the likelihood is that the wine was only a 3.99 wine in the first place. the advice was go for what you can afford or know about rather than searching out so called bargains and you wont go far wrong ie pay a couple of quid expect vinegar, pay a couple more and you might hit a decent bin.

personally after bottle no.2 it all tastes the same to me anyway, but alexweb im a red wine drinker and imho i always look out for cote de roussillon(villages) comes from the languedoc region of france and never fails to hit the spot.sante.
