Default Recommend me some wines

I don't know much about wine and when I goto the supermarket I just randomly pick something that sounds interesting. most are misses but a few hits.

Wolfblast yellow label is sheer heaven (any of them)
And
Gampo di Flori - Pinot Grigio is sublime with fish dishes, only got it as it was half price and wow what a good bottle it is, seeing as I'm not a fan of white wine, but could easily drink this. no mineral taste at all.


So what are your favorite "supermarket" wines.

I drink b lossom hill! If not, it's a box of dry white for me - the one with green plant on it from Sainsburys. I get that! £10... have it as a spritzer and it's great!!

At the moment, I'm devouring some strange red wine which I never knew existed. I shall find out the name and let you know, as it's tasty, not made me fall asleep and yeh! It's got to be good!

Just like Johnny!

Hahahaha

Asda 3 for £10 has a fairly good selection.

Snappygum white, red or rose are great.
Evoloution Shiraz is beautiful.
Blossom Hill white zinfandel is nice too.

When it's offers on I tend to just look at the label find 3 I like and try them. They'll get drank in this house anyway!
