Marks & Spencer has launched a brand new simplified wine range, with nearly every bottle coming in at only £5.
The new This Is… range, created by M&S winemakers led by Belinda Kleinig, includes 15 different types of popular wine, including red, white, rosé and sparkling options.
The new range includes popular styles of wines and different grape varieties, with names and label describing the distinct taste features of the wines.
The simplified labels are designed for wine drinking beginners who are unsure what exactly they enjoy or find complicated labels a bit confusing to decipher.
