Wines by the Mile.

Rosé Mezquiriz 2020. DO Navarra Remember when wine first started to be noticed on our supermarket shelves back in the 70s,. One was the infamous Mateus Rose. We rushed home with our beautifully designed bottles, mainly because it was claimed that the bottles could be converted into lamps. I never saw one that had. That sweet tasting wine dominated the rose market for a while. Now the choice is greater and to me at 1.75 euros this Navarra stands out amongst the low cost cheap wines. Just bung it in the fridge, go off to the beach and enjoy its fresh dry fruity flavours as you return to cool down. Made from the Garnacha grape. Verdejo is the main white grape in Rueda, producing wines that are fresh, aromatic, crisp and dry, this Spanish white wine is a great alternative to those of us who habitually stick to our Sauvignons and Chardonnays. A great one to try if you wish to be more adventurous with your grape selection. At 4.99 euros from lidl not the cheapest of the whites on offer but even at £6.50 in UK stores well worth a try.
