I've tasted some excellent supermarket Portuguese offerings this summer – none of that overly extracted, rustic, hot-alcohol feel. One of my choices is just 11%: fresh and vibrant, showing the diversity of reds from this country. My selections also highlight the good wines still found at under £10. With this price category shrinking due to yet more duty and tax rises, it's a pleasure to share quality bottles that are wallet-friendly, too.
Ramos Family Reserva Tinto 2023 (13.5%), £11, Morrisons . £11.00 Shop
Sedoso Douro 2022 (11%), £8.95, Co-op.
This one is lower in alcohol, silky in texture (with cranberry notes) and surprisingly versatile: it even works with salmon and other fish. Pop in the fridge for 20 minutes to enhance its freshness.
