If you're looking for great quality drops that offer bang for your buck, check out these 28 wines that have all received the Special Value rosette.

As consumers, one of the things we consider first when purchasing a bottle of wine is the price. It's all well and good to find a bottle that's been awarded 100 points, but if it's out of our budget then we probably won't ever get the opportunity to try it!

As such, here at Halliday Wine Companion we use a 'special value' symbol to signify wines considered to offer special value for money within the context of their rating. (If you're not sure which wines are special value, look out for a white star within a red circle that appears next to the wine region on our website .)

Value can apply at any price point, and for consistency we apply a basic algorithm to take into account the price of a wine and the points it is awarded. A value rosette is given, for instance, to $15 wines scoring 87 or more points, $25 wines scoring 90 or more, $35 wines of 93 or more, $50 wines of 95 points or more and $250 wines scoring 99 points or more.

The 28 wines below range between $19 and $60 in price, so if you're looking for top value wines, this is a great place to start.
