There’s a lot to enjoy in the Waitrose wine aisle right now, even if the distance between what has traditionally been the poshest of UK supermarket wine ranges and those of its bigger rivals is less pronounced than it’s ever been.
Bridging the affordability gap
Like its peers, Waitrose is making efforts to bridge the affordability gap created by the ongoing cost-of-living crisis, with regular Wine Lover Weeks, which offer customers six bottles for the price of five (or, in a trial earlier this month, four for the price of three). And, in the run-up to Christmas, the continuation of its popular £10 Fine Wine promotion, the best of which (from Beaujolais and St-Emilion to Australian sparkling and Argentine Malbec) we’ve highlighted in the pick of 25 wines featured below.
