How to Drink Wine Economically: Expert Tips for the Perfect Getaway

According to The Sun: LABEL THIS: When buying a bottle, choose wines with a label that indicates a region rather than just a country, advises wine expert Co-op Sarah Benson.

She explains: 'This shows that the wine is made from grapes from a much smaller region or locality — often from regions that specialize in certain grape varieties or have a good reputation in this area.'

Also, choose wines with a name that contains an additional word alongside the region, such as Classico Soave or Classico Chianti from Italy. This indicates a quality designation — meaning the wine comes from a smaller area with stricter quality requirements.

CHILL OUT: A big weekend is the perfect time to enjoy a chilled glass of rosé wine. But instead of tossing ice cubes into the glass to cool the wine, add frozen berries, advises Richard Bamfield, Master of Wine at Lidl. He adds: 'Whether it's blueberries, strawberries, or raspberries, they will help keep the wine fresh and add a splash of color, but most importantly, they won't dilute the delicate flavor notes of the rosé since the frozen fruits will thaw.' WASTE NO WINE: If you open a bottle but don't finish it, you can keep it fresh for another three days in the refrigerator, even if it’s red wine or sparkling. Sarah says: 'Using a thermos is a great way to store opened wines, as it helps keep the wine fresh longer.' Or try using leftover red wine to create a Spanish calimocho, which consists of equal parts red wine and Coca-Cola — an alternative to sangria and perfect for a big weekend barbecue. This news discusses various ways to enjoy wine and keep it fresh. Experts recommend choosing wines from specific regions, adding frozen berries to cool the wine, and using a thermos to store opened bottles. It also suggests an idea for using leftover red wine to create a cocktail.
