At its usual price, Sagramoso Valpolicella Superiore, Pasqua, 1995 was a recommendation a few months ago. But McCabes special offer of £2 off - making it £7.99 instead of £9.99 - elevates it to best-buy status. Enticing aromas of sweet cherries, herbs, a puff of smoke; round, succulent flavours that develop pleasantly as you sip, and a respectably long finish. Drink it up soon - no hardship as it's just the kind of red wine to suit light spring and summer food.
