The wine is included. It’s a secret weapon. M&S picks a red and a white. They’re not the best wines on earth. But they’re the best wines for this exact moment.
Quirky fact #3: The wine label is always slightly fancy. It says “A Côtes du Rhône” or “An Argentine Malbec.” It sounds expensive. It’s not. It costs about £6 retail. But paired with the lasagne and prawn cocktail? It tastes like champagne.
You’ll drink the whole bottle. Don’t pretend you won’t. It’s a date night. The leftovers become “breakfast mimosas.” That’s called problem solving.
