Part of Asda’s budget ten bottle Nice Drop wine range introduced in April 2021. All wines are priced between £3.75 and £4.50 and are countries around the world – unlike its rival Tesco’s value £3.99 Lateral range with all wines sourced from Chile. This makes for a more interesting range of flavours with this Cabernet Sauvignon from Spain. It’s light apple and blackberry pie flavours get better with opening and so open this bottle about an hour before you intend drinking it, so treating this wine more like one at twice the price. Interestingly this wine has a year (vintage in wine jargon) on the back label, making it unusual within the Nice Drop range, where the majority are non-vintage, that is have no year shown and are a blend of wines from various years. This means this vintage Cabernet Sauvignon is more likely to change its flavour slightly from year to year, making this wine even more a 5-star wonder.
