Now, pay attention. We have a lot of wines to get through and not much time, so if you don’t mind, I’ll crack on. All the wines come from the famous City firm of Corney & Barrow, and almost all are generously discounted. And there is the Brett-Smith Indulgence, which knocks off £6 per case if you buy two for delivery inside the M25, three cases outside. You will find many bargains here.

I have selected (and marked) two mixed cases, one for summer drinking, the other a luxury case for any time. But first, C&B’s marvellous house wines, perfect for parties and everyday quaffing. The white is zesty and lemony, the red warm and full. At the pitiful price of £55.20 you can bump up your order to qualify for the Indulgence.

Then there’s the wonderful C&B sparkling Blanc de Blancs (S) Adam Brett-Smith has knocked off £1.64
