South Africans looking to make the most of a sun-filled Sunday need not spend a fortune to enjoy a refreshing bottle of white wine. Makro’s latest selection spotlights five standout options, each under R120, that are perfect for relaxed outdoor gatherings or lazy afternoons with friends.

Leading the charge is the Spier Sauvignon Blanc 750 ml, a crisp, zesty wine priced at just R75. Its lively notes of passion fruit and gooseberry make it an ideal aperitif or a great partner to chicken salads. For those who prefer something with a rounder, fruitier profile, the Spier Chardonnay 750 ml offers ripe peach and gentle vanilla flavours, also at R75.

Chenin Blanc fans will appreciate the Boschendal Chenin Blanc 750 ml, available at R85 and known for its stone-fruit core and bright acidity – an easy companion for seafood or light snacks. Adding some sparkle to the mix, Durbanville Hills Sparkling Sauvignon Blanc 750 ml costs R119 and delivers lively citrus and green apple, perfect for toasts by the pool.

Finally, the Fat Bastard Chardonnay 750 ml rounds out the list at R115. With its rich tropical fruit and a touch of oak, it’s robust enough to pair with roast chicken off the braai.

With these options, enjoying a quality white wine on a warm Sunday afternoon has never been easier – or more affordable.
