Think of Bordeaux and an exclusive selection premium wines is likely to spring to mind – first growths, en primeur offerings and world-famous châteaux don’t tend to scream ‘value’.
Likewise in Burgundy, you’re unlikely to treat the grands crus of Romanée-Conti, Corton and Montrachet as casual purchases for mid-week quaffing.
But as with most wine regions, you can still find value-for-money bottles and enjoy something truly special without breaking the bank.
To back up this claim, we’ve pulled together a number of wines from across Burgundy and Bordeaux, all on the shelf at £25 or less per bottle* – and some below £20.
There’s something for everyone here; sparkling, white, red and sweet, and several offerings from well-known areas including St-Julien, St-Estèphe, Beaujolais, Chablis and Sauternes.
Alongside individual producers, our selection also showcases some great-value supermarket own-brand labels.
*The Sauternes listed is available in half bottle format
