This is Morrisons calling, and we have the results from our top pick of Euro wines to sample during the song contest on Saturday night. All you need to do is choose your party food (or bring out the barbecue if the weather is kind) and settle into the songs with a glass of something Italian, Romanian or even Greek for the big night.
