First, experts told us to use a blender to make our average wine taste like an expensive vintage.
And now, wine aficionados have let us in on another secret to make bargain booze taste like a quality bottle.
And all it takes is just one simple ingredient that you'll almost certainly already have in your kitchen.
The secret ingredient to making a cheap wine taste expensive is simply salt.
That's according to wine buff Nathan Myrhvold, a technology officer at Microsoft, who told the Wall Street Journal that adding just a few grains of salt can balance out any uneven flavours in the wine.
Myrhvold came up with the bizarre hack while he was drinking a glass of Cabernet and wishing it tasted more savoury. He tried adding a pinch of salt to the drink and surprisingly, found it tasted much better than before.
He soon told all his friends and he swears they now all add a pinch of salt to the drink.

If you've bought a cheap bottle of wine that tastes more like vinegar than a smooth vintage, then perhaps it's worth trying this simple and very inexpensive wine hack.
It comes after vineyard owner Marcy Roth, from California, last year told wine lovers to aerate their wine using a blender to make cheap plonk taste better.
Blending the wine is a quick way of decanting it, which aerates it and help oxygenate the liquid. The method is known as hyper-decanting. This means that the flavour of the wine is greatly improved. You just need to blitz the wine for 30 seconds apparently to improve the flavour, it's said.
