Wimbledon may be over but there's still a summer of popping prosecco ahead.
Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply enjoying a glass with dinner, this Waitrose buy is sure to elevate your summer without draining your wallet.
Shoppers can pick up the La Gioiosa Prosecco Rosé Millesimato Brut for just £8.50.
This offer, available through Tuesday, July 29, sees Waitrose customers saving £2 per bottle.
The La Gioiosa prosecco has received high acclaim from connoisseurs, critics, and customers alike.
"I think we have the best deal of the year. This is an incredible deal," said TikTok user and wine enthusiast Gary (@garys_wine).
"You have a fantastic Prosecco La Gioiosa. It's a brut, so it's a little bit drier."
The wine fan described the prosecco as "wonderful before a meal, during the meal, after the meal, and to celebrate everything".
Another TikToker who specialises in wine reviews shared her thoughts on the buy.
"I'm immediately getting [notes of] lovely strawberries," said Elizabeth (@elizabethwinegirl).
'Aldi, are you ok hun' wine pro exclaims as she calls store's £6.99 pink bubbles a 'crowd pleaser' you need to snap up
"It's extremely fresh, lovely floral notes to it. That's a really beautiful mouthfeel, I swallowed that in a second because it's delicious."
She concluded that the prosecco will be "easy to drink this summer".
The drink features the coveted DOC label, meaning it follows strict quality standards of authentic Italian wine.
It was named as the second best prosecco of 2025 by the experts at Good Housekeeping.
Ranking just behind the Tesco Finest Prosecco Rosé, the drink was rated just above the much pricier Selfridges Selection Prosecco.
