Best seasonal buys at Marks & Spencer

The latest range of wines from Marks & Spencer champions English wines and features both interesting 'discovery' bottles and classic styles that are ideal for summer drinking. Julie Sheppard recommends 30 great buys for your shopping basket.

The latest Marks & Spencer (M&S) tasting showcased wines for seasonal drinking and al fresco fun. There were 21 brand new listings, including six new varietals joining the Found range, which shines a light on unusual grapes and styles (see below).

Perfect for summer, there are also six new rosés. Alongside classic pale pink Provence styles, look out for the great value Myrtia Xinomavro Rosé 2024 (£10) from Greece and the crisp Italian Etna Rosato 2024 (£14), made from Nerello Mascalese grown in the volcanic vineyards of Sicily.

M&S also continues to fly the flag for English wines, in response to increased demand from its customers. ‘One of our heartland areas for innovation is English wine, where we have introduced the first own-label Charmat method English fizz, first English pét-nat on the high street and now the first own-label English orange wine,’ says Caroline Thompson-Hill, head of beers, wines and spirits for M&S.
