- Solid weeknight red
Picked this up from my local wine shop because the guy behind the counter said it was great value. He wasn't wrong — really nice fruit flavours and a bit of warmth from the 14% but it doesn't feel boozy. Had it with a slow-cooked beef stew and it was spot on. For under £11 I'd definitely buy it again.

- Decent enough for the price
Got this as part of a mixed case and it's alright. Good structure and the fruit is balanced, not jammy or anything. It's quite warming at 14% so probably more of a winter wine for me. Not bad at all but I wouldn't go out of my way to track it down again.

- Surprised by this one
Never heard of Bobal before but gave this a go after seeing it recommended online. Really expressive nose on it — you can smell it as soon as you pour. There's a nice acidity that keeps it fresh and it's got more going on than most reds at this price. Would happily drink this with pasta or just on its own.

- It's fine, nothing special
Bought a couple of bottles for a dinner party and it went down okay but nobody was raving about it. It's drinkable and smooth enough, but at nearly £11 I've had Spanish reds I liked more for less money. The finish is clean though, I'll give it that.
