Chartered surveyor by day, wine bore by night. These are the shops and bars I've actually gone back to, not the ones that looked good on Instagram once. Chorlton's spoiled for choice these days so I've ranged a bit further. No tasting notes with fruit descriptors that sound like a scented candle. Just whether it's worth your Saturday and your fiver.

1Tiny's Tipple	Tiny's Tipple	Independent wine shop	Affordable everyday bottles	510 Wilbraham Road, Chorlton-cum-Hardy	Manchester	£	Where I go when I can't justify a twenty quid bottle but still want something decent. Ex-Oddbins lot, know their stuff.	8
2Reserve Wines	Reserve Wines	Independent wine shop and bar	Global, well-curated range	176 Burton Road, West Didsbury	Manchester	££	Been going since before it had four other branches. Good bar out back now too, if you fancy a glass before you commit to a bottle.	8
3Evuna Deansgate	Evuna Deansgate	Spanish wine house and tapas bar	Imported Spanish wines	277-279 Deansgate	Manchester	££	City centre option for when the in-laws visit and want somewhere that looks the part. Rioja list is proper.	7
4Evuna Northern Quarter	Evuna Northern Quarter	Spanish wine house and tapas bar	Spanish wines by the glass	79 Thomas Street	Manchester	££	Quieter sister to Deansgate. Good for a midweek catch-up that turns into three glasses you didn't plan on.	7
