Wine: Something for the weekend?
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

2009 Asda Beaujolais
It was hard for Beaujolais to put a foot wrong in 2009, so rather than risk a watery 2010 nouveau, go for a delicious 2009 with its vibrantly cherryish aromas and the gluggy juiciness of a good gamay. £4.47, Asda

2009 Palataia Pinot Noir, Rheinpfalz
German pinot noir is one of this year's surprise packages; in the hands of Matthias Gaul & ex-M&S winemaker Gerd Stepp, this example displays a strawberry fragrance with silky fruit flavours. £8.49, Marks & Spencer

2008 Chablis Premier Cru, Mont de Milieu, Domaine Sainte Céline
Invitingly intense in aroma, this classy white burgundy from Brocard is flecked with crème fraîche and honey, but make no mistake, it finishes bone dry with a mineral tang. £16.99, Sainsbury's
