9 tantalising wines from 2025

From fantastic fizz to radiant rosé and rich reds, top drops to have on hand

- 

Here are weekday wines, weekend wines, special occasion wines, and then there are the wines - labels which light up your eyes, tantalise the taste buds and come with the promise of pleasure.

And one of the hallmarks of these prize picks isn't necessarily the price point, region or style; it's the satisfaction you feel every time you pour a glass and think to yourself: “This is a wine I love to drink again and again.”

Whether it's a slug of Spanish warmth, bold New World fruit, a seafood-loving white, drop of sunshine in a glass - the list goes on - these are some of the highlights from 2025 to have on hand...

1. Errazuriz Cabernet Sauvignon 2023, Maipo, Chile, £9, Tesco

Far from a one-trick pony, Chile excels at most grape varieties and its cabernet sauvignon is worth making a song and dance about. From its stable of world class wines, this topnotch producer turns out this impressively consistent, deep-flavoured red and a joy from word go. Aromatic with notes of cherries, spiced cranberry, tobacco and vanilla, similar flavours unfold with a youthful charm, enlivened by freshness on the finish.

2. Terra Organica Rioja Crianza 2020, Spain, £11.25, Ocado
