With a welcome burst of sunshine, longer days and summer just around the corner, it’s a trio of outstanding value wine deals we bring you in May.

With only 37 days to go to the greatest sporting event on the planet, we turn our focus to South Africa this month, with 20% off all our wines from the 2010 World Cup hosts. We’ve a fifth off every bottle from the sun-soaked Cape, and with everything from friendly giraffes to private cellars, South Africa is the HOT ticket this summer.

Our second focus in May is more of a reward to our loyal customers than a plug to try something new. Three-time Italian Winery of the Year Farnese has been a top-seller for us since we opened, so we’ve stocked to the warehouse roof on this one: normally the lowest price in the country at €9.69, its now €7.99 when you buy two or more on the regular range, and €6.99 on the entry-level Ortonese.

Last but not least, we head to the south of France and the Languedoc. Funky and accessible labelling, easy to approach styles and outstanding value for money, its no wonder some people call it France’s New World. We’ve already got some of the best value wines out there, but for the month of May it’s 6 for 5: buy 5 of any Languedoc wine, we’ll give you a sixth absolutely free!

We’ve even extended the offer to our house wines Cuvee Jean-Paul (not quite the Languedoc but close enough, and we figured who’s going to argue!), bringing the average price to our lowest ever €6.24 per bottle, or €74.90 for a case of 12.

Finally, our May Case of the Month is our recommended picks from the month’s specials. We’ve four South African, four from Farnese and four from the Languedoc for €110 delivered, saving you €21 and giving you a Curious mix to grace any patio or dining table.

As ever, free, free, FREE delivery on everything, all offers run until 31st May or while stocks last.
