Great everyday drinking wine

Yes, I recommend this

My wife just loves this Italian Merlot, in particular its 9.5% strength. Other supermarkets used to do similar low-alcohol red wines, but mostly they've dropped off the shelves, leaving M&S with a sure-fire winner. It tastes like many other good-value merlots, but is a tad expensive at £6.99/bottle - at a few pounds cheaper, we'd be buying even more case-loads!

Light and fruity

Yes, I recommend this

This wine is light and fruity, I'm a guzzler not a sipper and this wine is just right, it's not heavy.
