Co-op Irresistib­le Marsanne 2019, Languedoc, France, £8, Co-op stores

With charming floral aromas and hints of ripe white peach, it’s generously laden with peaches and apricots with creamy, honeyed overtones balanced by a fresh, bright finish. A delicious alternativ­e to chardonnay and a lovely find with its fetching label.

Buenas Vides Argentinia­n Shiraz 2019, San Juan, Argentina, £6.99, Aldi

A smooth shiraz with an admirably rich bouquet of blackcurra­nts and florals, there’s a lovely complexity here, with lots of blackberry and plummy dark fruits, sweet spice and vanilla from nine months’ oak-aging. Offering the perfect level of ripeness with sweet, round tannins, just the right side of jammy.

Moonlight & Roses 2019, Coteaux D’Aix En Provence, France, currently £8.50 (was £10), Morrisons

An appealing ballet-slipper pink with exquisite aromas of bright red fruits and dried flowers, a crisp, fresh palate of creamy fruit coupled with silky peach notes, and balancing acidity keeping everything fresh to the last dreamy drop. An eye-catching, elegant style of rosé, bound to give pleasure.

M&S Classics No 26 Sauvignon Blanc 2020, Casablanca Valley, Chile, £8, Marks & Spencer stores

With super-fresh aromas of lime, gooseberry and freshly-cut grass, complement­ed by a citrusy edginess and rush of lime and passionfru­it, finishing with zippy acidity and lime blossom freshness – it’s bang on the money with shellfish and spring greens.
