With a lot of these wines costing under £6, the experts reckon they're worth more than that...
Nothing adds stress to a Christmas party like being put in charge of choosing the wine, and getting it wrong is all too easy with the vast choice available in the supermarkets. So we turned to the experts at Wotwine to provide some festive advice, which means you can relax and enjoy the celebrations knowing that unlike some of the knitwear, the wine will be in excellent taste.
This includes a selection of fresh white wines, fruity reds, a couple of classic white options and two serious wines without the price tag but are a real treat for Christmas.
