Our wine expert reveals the best Spanish whites, from £9.99

Daily Mail​17-05-2025
Hailing from coastal towns and inland hills, Spanish whites rely on a range of native varieties so there's something to suit every occasion, mood and fussy dinner guest! For fresh, zingy styles, Albariño is the go-to. After a little more texture? There's oaked white Rioja and Godello (Spain 's answer to Chardonnay). Got a little more to spend? I love premium barrel-aged white Riojas: rich, complex and perfect for Burgundy lovers.
How good to see Aldi stocking this fab Spanish gem. It's pure, textured and layered, with peachy citrus appeal – a steal guaranteed to impress even your fanciest friend.
This was my first taste of the rare Albilla grape, here grown inland at altitude. It has a floral bouquet, red apple and lemon. Try with herby salads.
Viña Pomal Barrel Fermented Rioja blanco 2023 (13%)
£10.50 Shop
Here's one for red wine drinkers who 'don't do white': unctuous stone fruit, sweet spice from oak and a mouth-filling creamy texture.
This textbook Albariño ticks all the boxes – it's zesty, vibrant, refreshing and so moreish; a sea-like charmer to pair with salty snacks and/ or seafood, simply cooked.

Maya Jama shows off her incredible figure in plunging swimsuit as she soaks up the sun in Ibiza

Maya Jama showed off her incredible figure as she shared a series of photos from her trip to Ibiza. The Love Island host, who has been celebrating her 31st birthday, wore a plunging swimsuit in the update. The two-piece, by Chanel, featured multi-coloured stripes and a zip front top with matching bottoms. Maya later changed into turquoise set which featured a strappy top, that tied around her waist and a matching pleated skirt. Posing for photos, she styled her hair into beachy waves and added a winged eyeliner to complete her look. The presenter captioned the update: 'Never ending Leo season.' Earlier his week Maya put her incredible bikini body on full display as she shared a series of holiday snaps from her quick trip to Ibiza with pal AJ Odudu. The Love Island host was wearing a leopard-print bikini as she lounged on a sunbed beside a fruit platter and a bottle of Moet champagne and Don Julio tequila. Keeping herself cool, she wore a baseball hat but otherwise kept the attention on her jaw-dropping bikini body while soaking up the sun. Revealing that she was only briefly on the Balearic island with AJ, 37, following the end of her ITV2 hosting duties, Maya wrote: '24hrs to play.' The pair hit a club together and were all smiles as they posed on the dancefloor fanning themselves. Meanwhile it was reported ITV bosses are pulling out all the stops to keep Love Island host Maya with a mega deal worth almost £2million on the table. The TV favourite has become the jewel in the crown of the dating show since taking over in 2023. And executives are determined not to lose her to rivals such as Netflix and Amazon. Earlier this week Maya put her incredible bikini body on full display as she shared a series of holiday snaps from her quick trip to Ibiza with pal AJ Odudu Under the proposed deal, Maya would pocket more than £800,000 to front the flagship summer series, the same again for the winter All Stars version, plus a hefty sum for hosting After Sun. The presenter's mix of star power, wit and her jaw-dropping style is thought to have made her one of ITV's most bankable names. A source told The Sun: 'Maya is a massive hit with fans and bosses. ITV are desperate not to lose her. 'They're acutely aware that she's being offered lucrative work with other companies such as Netflix. She's hugely in demand.' They added: 'It is still early days but bosses are preparing an extremely good package for Maya that she would find hard to turn down.' The Daily Mail contacted ITV and Maya's representatives at the time. Bristol-born Maya, currently dating Manchester City ace Ruben Dias, 28, has been linked to a new Amazon Prime entertainment show, rumoured to come with a huge pay cheque. She's also branching into acting and has landed herself a role as a gangster's wife in Guy Ritchie's Netflix hit The Gentleman.

Man Utd loanee Marcus Rashford and on-off girlfriend Lucia Loi spotted for first time since rekindling in Barcelona

MARCUS RASHFORD has been spotted with on-again-off-again girlfriend Lucia Loi for the first time since rekindling their relationship in Barcelona. Rashford, 27, sealed a move to Barcelona on loan with an option to buy this summer, potentially bringing his 10-year stint in the Manchester United team to a permanent end. 7 7 But it seems that it won't all be unfamiliar surroundings for the forward, with long-term flame Lucia heading to Catalonia alongside him. A video uploaded to TikTok showed Rashford signing autographs for Barcelona fans out of the window of his Range Rover, with Lucia alongside him in the passenger seat. SunSport understands that the Red Devils exile asked Lucia, 26, to help him settle in Spain to allow him to focus on football. Meanwhile she was present for Rashford's unveiling photoshoot at the Camp Nou last month. Rashford and Lucia have been in each other's lives since high school, attending Ashton-on-Mersey School in Manchester together as youngsters. They were in a relationship as Rashford made his stunning debut for Man United in the Europa League against FC Midtjylland in February 2016. The romance hit a rocky patch in 2021 during the Covid pandemic as they split, but only to reconcile the next year. In June 2022, after enjoying a romantic meal at Catch LA in West Hollywood, California. 7 7 However, their engagement ended in June 2023 after the England international was seen with a model outside a Miami hotel. At the time, SunSport exclusively revealed that they broke up because the relationship had "run its course". Since then the pair have stayed in touch, while Rashford has been linked to other romantic interests. But it appears they are both back in each other's lives as they spend time together in Barcelona. Rashford has said that his move to Spain has been about rediscovering the happiness in his football. The star, who spent the second half of last season on loan at Aston Villa, opened up on his first switch abroad in an interview with Sport. He said: "I need to be happy to play my best football. For me personally… Football is my life. You know? "It's been my life since I was very, very young. Actually, I don't know anything else. So the bond I have, not only with my career but with sport in general, is huge and I don't expect it to go away. "But yes, it's always good to be happy when you play football. It's the reason I started in this. "You never know for sure, but from the beginning I have felt comfortable. "On the pitch, of course I'll learn more with each game. But the starting point is very good. "The more matches that come, the more I'll learn. Barça is the easiest place to enjoy and learn football." 7 7
