Stop and smell the rosé: ALDI launches 10 new bottles of pink plonk!
Aldi wine expert, Sam Caporn MW, says: “Rosé comes in a wide range of different colours and styles – from delicate, pale pinks to bright, almost neon hues that can be refreshingly dry to delectably sweet and from all over the world. The thing that unites them all is their compatibility with the summer months, al fresco eating and their versatility; there is a rosé out there for everyone! From light seafood and fish, grilled chicken and prawns, picnics or just as an aperitif, you can pick a pink from Aldi that is perfect for the occasion, your palate and your purse.”
From the picturesque South of France, to those rosé regions further afield, such as Argentina and Greece, the new range will bring a taste of summer right to your wine glass. All coming in at under £10, what other reason is there to put on those rosé coloured glasses!
