Wines Under £20
Everyday wines chosen with the same care as the fine ones.
Under £20 is where most wine gets bought. It is also, honestly, where most of the dull bottles live. That is exactly why Mark is fussy here. Every wine on this page earned its place the same way the fine wines did: he tasted it, liked it, and would happily open it on a Tuesday night. If a bottle is only here because it is cheap, it is not here at all.
These are the wines to keep in the rack for weeknight cooking, to take to a friend's without a second thought, or to try when you want something new without committing serious money. Good winemaking does exist at this price: you just have to know where to look, and that is the part Mark has done for you.

Mark's Best-Value Picks
If you only have time to choose one bottle, start here. These are the wines under £20 that consistently surprise people: bottles that drink like they cost half as much again, and always prompt the question, "where did you get that?"
Reds Under £20
Proper reds with real fruit and structure: nothing thin, nothing confected. These are the bottles for midweek suppers and relaxed weekends: easy to drink, but made by people who care about what goes in the bottle.
Whites Under £20
Crisp, fresh and made for drinking rather than cellaring. These whites are the ones that vanish first at the table: lovely with food, and just as happy without it.
Sparkling Under £20
Bubbles do not need a big occasion or a big budget. These sparkling wines bring proper fizz and freshness at a price that makes opening one on an ordinary evening feel entirely reasonable.
