OVER 50 Italian wines reduced to €5.00 at Superquinn, this weekend only

Wine-lovers are in for a serious treat at Superquinn this weekend, as the retailer reduces over 50 of its Italian wines to just €5 per bottle. From Thursday 18th to Sunday 21st September shoppers will be able to stock up on their favourite Italian wines* at up to 80% off the normal retail price, with a further 5% off when they purchase any six bottles. Over 50 wines are included in the clearance, selling at €5 strictly while stocks last.

Superquinn’s end of summer clearance offers some unbelievable value. With a huge range of wines that usually retail from €5.49 right up to €30.59, all retailing for just €5 a bottle this weekend, Superquinn will have something to suit every palate and every budget too! Some of the Italian favourites that are included in the sale are:

Tommasi Valpolicella Amarone, €5.00 (Normal RSP €30.59)
This is a classic Amarone, with dark morello cherry fruits layered over a raisin fruit core, pure elegance and class.

Castello D’Albola Chianti Classico, €5.00 (Normal RSP €24.49)
This Chianti comes from the heartland of the Chianti region in Tuscany, with woodland and cherry flavours with a dark smoky background.

Marques de Collavini Pinot Grigio, €5.00 (Normal RSP €12.99)
Italy is the heartland of Pinot Grigio which is fast becoming one of the most popular styles of white wine in Ireland. This wine is crisp with green apple flavours and a hint of nuttiness on the finish.

Casa Mia Organic Grillo, €5.00 (Normal RSP €8.99)
Sicily has become one of the heartlands of organic wine, with its beneficial climate negating the need for the use of chemicals. Grillo is indigenous to Sicily and offers rounded melon flavours that can age.

Speaking about the sale, James Wilson, Superquinn’s Trading Director says, “We’re delighted to launch our end of summer Italian wine clearance weekend, with over 50 Italian wines will be available for just €5 per bottle, so it couldn’t be easier for shoppers to pick out their favourites and make unbelievable savings! Whether they usually spend €10, €20, or even €30 on a bottle of wine, this weekend Superquinn customers will only need to spend €5 to buy any** of our Italian wines on offer, while stocks last.”

*A limit of 6 bottles per customer will apply
**Sparkling wines are not included in the sale

Which is why I'm guessing there was about one each of these two allocated per store, if that, and it's basically just a scam to get people through the doors.

Still, I picked up a bottle of the rosé. How bad can it be for a fiver?

Just down in the Knocklyon store and none of the decent stuff (i.e. Tommasi) left there. Might drop down again tomorrow to see if they have restocked.

The Tommasi Ripazza and Amarone are normally top notch. Cant believe they are going for a fiver...

It seems that, in reality, they're not going for a fiver!

No Superquinn in Cork, anyway
