I tried supermarket Prosecco under £10 – the delicious winner was the cheapest bottle

THE festive season is here and what better way to celebrate than with a glass of fizz?. Whether you prefer your bubbles mixed with orange juice to start the day or wait until Christmas lunch is served to pop a bottle, there is no better way to celebrate than with a cold glass of Prosecco.
But with so many of the big supermarkets offering their own versions for bargain prices, it can be hard to work out where to spend your money. To help you decide, I tried a range of different options available for under a tenner from high street retailers Sainbury’s, Tesco, Aldi, Lidl and M&S and marked them all against their value for price and taste….
While this was a very easy to drink bottle of prosecco with a nice light fizz, I found the flavour was almost too subtle, especially considering that this was the most expensive bottle I tried. The light flavour would certainly make it a crowd-pleaser with people who might not choose Prosecco as their first choice of drink, but I would have liked a bit more depth for the price.
Price: 2 / 5. Taste: 3 / 5. Overall score: 4 / 10. At first taste this was lovely and smooth to drink with delicate floral flavours and a nice crispness. However after a few sips I found that it had quite a strong aftertaste, which lingered in my mouth for longer than I would have liked and meant I wouldn’t rush back for more.
