Bowler & Brolly, Winemaster’s Lot Classic Cuvée Brut, Hampshire, England NV
£19.99 Aldi
Twee name aside, this is a tasty fizz, with a steely line and firm green apple bite alongside racy acidity. At £5 more than Aldi’s reliable non-vintage Champagne, it’s not cheap but it showcases home-grown quality. TG Alc 12%
Hermann J Wiemer, Dry Riesling, Finger Lakes, New York, USA 2019
£19.50 Wanderlust Wine
A benchmark Finger Lakes Riesling, poised yet approachable, with lemon, ripe pear and melon. The palate is assertive, with a soft mineral backbone and a subtle oiliness underpinned by yellow apple, pineapple and tangerine. A bright finish, with salinity and vibrant acidity. IS Alc 13%
