A £6 bottle of wine from Morrisons and a £7.99 bottle of Crème de Cassis from Aldi are among a selection of budget supermarket booze to win top awards by tasting experts.

According to nearly 400 experts who voted in the International Wine & Spirit Competition , the cut-price booze available on supermarket shelves across the UK are among the best in the world.

The bargain tipples were named in a list of award winners by the annual alcoholic drinks competition, with supermarkets dominating the voting after going up against drinks priced as high as £2,000.

Family favourites Lidl and Aldi received six and four awards each for spirits sold in their stores for as little as £5.99.

A Crème de Cassis which is sold for just £7.99 at Aldi stores won gold over bottles costing twice as much in a blind tasting test, while a £6 bottle of Morrisons Signature Albariño wine picked up a silver award.

Meanwhile Tesco, Morrisons and Waitrose all faired well with their spirits, which were handed a number of Gold, Silver Outstanding, Silver and Bronze awards from the IWSC.

These supermarket spirits were awarded in the same categories as the likes of a £1,999.95 bottle of Richelieu XO cognac which received a gold award.

Asda appeared to be the only one of the 'big four' missing in the awards round-up with Sainsbury's also receiving silver accolades for their 'Taste the Difference' products.

Nearly 400 judges from more than 30 countries take a total of seven months of the year to properly taste each and every product.

Altogether the IWSC receives entries from 90 countries across the globe to determine the best and encourage recognition for quality products.
