This book specialises in supermarket wines for one very good reason: there's a new reality in the retail wines market! The supermarkets have won the High Street...over 70% of UK wine is bought in them. The top wine buyers all now buy for: Waitrose, Tesco, Sainsbury's, Majestic, Morrisons and the other major players. The whole world knows that these tasting teams buy the pick of the world's vintages. Now they are positioning their ranges further up-market, by offering a broad range of superb, characterful wines. Ned Halley tasted over 2000 of these wines and has selected the very best for you, based on character and style.
