Inspector Grape is  on the hunt for the best white wine he can pick up the high street for under £10 per bottle.  He throws in a cheeky Rose to mix things up.  Most wine snobs believe there is no such thing as good cheap wine, let’s see if we can prove them wrong!

His quest for quality on a budget leads him to one of the best white wines from South Africa in the form of  Ken Forrester’ Chenin Blanc.

Surprisingly the The Wooing Tree Rose from New Zealand hits the spot as well.

But for this episode the best white wine is hands down a Pinot Blanc from Marcel Deiss that come out tops with 4 stars.
