We adore a pink escapade at The Three Drinkers, so we feel very well placed to recommend some of the affordable Rosé bottles on supermarket shelves (if we do say so ourselves!)
For under £10, it’s easy for Rosé picks to go wrong, but not with these. Scroll to find your local supermarket and see which Rosé bottle is providing serious bang for buck…
Chassaux Et- Fils Atlantique Rosé
Sail away to summer paradise with Chassaux Et-Fils Atlantique Rosé – a French coastal delight that's as refreshing as it is wallet-friendly. A sea of redcurrant and rhubarb scents await, with waves of ripe strawberries and a zesty, dry finish. If you like Whispering Angel, then this is a perfect cost cutting replacement.
Size: 750ml
ABV: 12%
Find here: £6.49 Aldi
Costières de Nîmes Rosé
Now for something with a little more substance to it from the Rhône Valley. Crafted from Grenache, Syrah and Mourvédre, the personality is more savoury and richer, with darker fruits, savoury touches, herbal hints. If your usual is red wine then this is the Rosé for you.
Size: 750ml
ABV: 13%
Find here: £6.49 Lidl
Mirabeau Belle Année
Bringing the joie de vivre yet again is Mirabeau, with Belle Année, a glassful of Provence’s finest. Easy going dryness, crunchy red fruits, and vivid citrus whisk you away to the French sun, and with a distinct lack of sweetness, this is perfect alongside food. Top value.
Size: 750ml
ABV: 12.5%
Find here: £8 (usually more!) Ocado
The Hidden Sea Rosé
Not just a looker, but a marine superhero, it’s the beautifully bottled Hidden Sea Rosé. With every bottle, you're part of the rescue team, saving 10 plastic bottles from the ocean and so far they’ve saved tens of millions. With the gorgeous fruity ecstasy of strawberries and cream dancing on your senses, and cleansing zest refreshing with each sip, this is a delicious win win.
Size: 750ml
ABV: 12%

The Best Vinho Verde
The resurgent retro charm of Vinho Verde from Morrison’s The Best range here, with delightful raspberry sherbet vibes. Ripe, rich stone fruits and in particular sweet peach stand out amongst a backdrop of rose petal florality and sweet red berries. There is a mineral acidity that’s crisp and very welcome, getting the balance spot on.
Size: 750ml
ABV: 11.5%
Find here: £8.50 Morrisons
Silver Moki Sauvignon Blush
A Sauvignon Blanc grape Rosé presents us with something a little different, offering that crisp white feel and cutting citric acidity as well as the luscious peach and strawberry notes. The floral red berry notes that dominate most Rosé are subtle here, with that zesty freshness dominating a wine that feels like it should be more expensive. Try it before it is!
Size: 750ml
ABV: 12.5%
Find here: £8.25 Sainsbury’s
Maison Castel Rosé d’Anjou
Meet Maison Castel Rosé d’Anjou, a picturesque blend of pale pink and coral hues. Its red and citrus fruit explosion on the nose is a prelude to the fresh, aromatic palate, beautifully balanced with strawberry sweetness and refreshing dryness. It’s got summer night sipper written all over it and for under a tenner, you can’t go wrong.
Size: 750ml
ABV: 10.5%
Find here: £9 Tesco
