Daily Telegraph Top 10 wines for Summer Posted by Andrew Chapman in News and Comments, 10:45am 19/07/2008. Daily Telegraph wine writer Jonathan Ray has picked his Top Ten supermarket wines, which makes interesting reading. I'm not familiar with all the wines, but will be giving a few a try and reporting back here. I've been doing a bit of supermarket wine shopping myself of late, and have to say that after years of not buying regularly via High Street wine outlets, there have been some crackers to discover. Supermarkets have clearly done a lot to change the way we buy wine, and massive amounts to help increase its popularity. But I have also been shocked by some of the things I've found... in Sainsbury's you can now buy red and white already poured out into glasses and sealed with shrink wrap. Is this to encourage sipping a glass at the checkout or as you pack your shopping into the car?? Clearly a world gone mad when there is a market for convenience shopping at this level! Or perhaps I'm just getting older/more cynical than I thought?! ^ Back to top
