Les Abeilles de Colombo, Jean-Luc Colombo, Côtes du Rhône, Halifax Wine Co, £8.95. A great-value wine, the blend

of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre produces fresh, juicy cherry and plum fruit with a layer of spice and supple, silky tannins. Team it with a sausage supper, pasta or a plate of charcuterie. Abeilles means bees, which are vital to the countryside. A contribution from each bottle goes to support the British

Beekeepers Association.
