Wines under $20

Cheeky little French ros? made from the great Grenache grape which adds red berry flavours and freshness to dry pale pinkies from the south of France.

A lively and affordable newcomer to our pink wine shelves. 

Whitehaven Wines began life in 1994 as a romantic business for a couple of corporate escapees, Sue and Greg White, who had given up life in the rat race of Auckland for another kind of life aboard their yacht. When sailing around the country, they took shelter in the Marlborough Sounds from Pacific storms and fell in love with the region. An easy thing to do when harbouring in the spectacularly pristine waters of the Sounds. They decided to settle there on terra firma once more and try their hands at wine production, hiring a winemaker and beginning a business which has now been around for 26 years. Greg has sadly passed away now, leaving a legacy as well as his wife and daughter, Sam, to run the winery. Their winemaker is Peter Jackson.

Rich and flavoursome Riesling with its alcohol removed but with great concentration of aromas and tastes here, including lemon zest with notes of grapefruit and a juicy fresh finish. This is one of the best zero per cent alcohol wines we have tried yet and no surprise it comes from the makers of New Zealand's biggest selling Riesling.

Grapes from the South Island are blended and fermented into a wine which then has its alcohol removed to make a tasty wine based beverage without alcohol. 

Vallformosa's new 0.0% sparkling is an alcohol free wine that's new in store. It's a Cava, which is Spanish bubbly and is one of the great sparkling wine secrets of the world/ It's made the same way as champagne, only it spends less time aging on yeast lees in the bottle which means it has a less intensely yeasty taste while still retaining the dry flavours and freshness that characterise great bubbles. It also comes at a fraction of the cost, which makes it superb value for money.

Argentinian Malbec is one of the best winter wines around with its dark smooth full body, richness of black plum flavours and spicy notes adding delicious complexity to every sip. This one is certified organic and offers a lively, lovely complex expression of the great Malbec grape. 

Using the best black currant and blueberries with a little apple to give our Berry Bomb the right amount of zest to ensure the taste explodes.Low in saturated fat, cholesterol & calories. - 5% ABV
