    I may be wrong, but i think most (intelligent) people know that.

    my favourite bottles at a tenner or less... £7.99 in Waitrose currently on offer at £7.99 in Waitrose £10 in Sainburys(aplogies for the size of the pic) The Sainsburys Zinfandel is from Chronic Cellars, if you went into Majestic you would pay around £15 for almost exactly the same wine...

    Financially. The £10 average is something that i do try to stick to, but for every bottle of £20 wine that means 3 bottles under £7. To be honest it's very rare that I would spend £20+ on a single bottle (the Decoy is a rare special treat to myself). My trolley is usually a mix of £7-£13 range.

    Probably not, but if I spend over a tenner on a bottle I would only buy a type that I know I should like, or more likely, know that I do like. I can't afford to take too many risks.

    You can choose to believe that should you wish to. In my experience of drinking plenty of wines both above and under £10, you can indeed get a nice tasting bottle for under a tenner. You are more likely to get one if you spend over a tenner. I'm not saying go mad, but as Simon Hoggart said...

    I try to average out at £10 per bottle, some more expensive and some well known (to me) cheap and cheerful favourites for less. My current favourite pricey tipple is this which you can pick up for £20-£25 a bottle.

    you need to provide a detail or 2 to help out. Do you prefer red or white? If red, do you like light and fruity styles or full bodied, bigger flavours? If white, then someone else can help!

    Never been a fan of Bordeaux red wines, they all taste like rain to me. I've been drinking, and enjoying, some very nice full bodied Califonian Zinfandels of late, plus following that grape's heritage, some nice Italian Primitivos as well. I've also started drinking more Aussie reds, which i've...
