Lidl recently added 10 new wines to its summer range. The two below are the best of the ones I've tasted. It is well worth paying the extra €2 for the Lirac compared with the supermarket's €7.99 Côtes du Rhône Villages.

Mezguire Chardonnay 2019, Navarra, €7.99
This is a good, refreshing unoaked Chardonnay with mouth-watering green-apple fruits and a crisp, dry finish. One to sip solo or to drink alongside a bowl of mussels or goujons of lemon sole with a garlic mayo.

Lirac 2017, €9.99
Medium- to full-bodied with smooth, ripe red-cherry and raspberry fruits. Enjoy this with cassoulet, a vegetarian bean and tomato stew or a homemade cheeseburger.
