Spring is here, summer is coming and Aldi has launched the perfect wine collection to accompany any seasonal evening. The collection is made up of 120 wines, and that’s not even the best bit, 95% of them are under £10. Almost a quarter of the collection is under £5, it just keeps getting better for wine enthusiasts.

The launch comes as Aldi’s range of homegrown wines have beaten premium retailers and brands such as Waitrose, M&S and Simpsons which are 70% more expensive in the Which? English Wine Taste Test. Aldi’s Winemaster’s Lot English Sparkling (£19.99, 75cl) and Specially Selected English Bacchus (£9.99, 75cl) beat wines from Chapel Down, Hattingley and Nyetimber to be awarded Best Buy and Great Value accolades.

Julie Ashfield, managing director of buying at Aldi UK, says: “Aldi is growing rapidly and outperforming competitors like never before, and much of this is thanks to our successful wine ranges. The new seasonal range includes some of the best value alternatives to popular styles and flavours available at the moment. And we’ve included plenty of accessible price points for shoppers that will allow them to enjoy amazing wine in the sun without having to worry about the cost.”

Wine expert and the face of Aldi’s Wine School, Sam Caporn,added: “Aldi’s new range is a treasure trove of affordable delights. From eclectic European finds such as the Baron Amarillo Monastrell Blanc de Noirs and to the New World with a stunning Riesling Blush and a smooth and soft Australian Malbec. These are all super quality wines typically costing a lot more than the prices you can expect to see on Aldi shelves this spring and summer. There really is something for every palate, purse, and occasion.”

So, what are the top picks from Aldi’s extensive line of spring and summer wines? Here’s a full breakdown including the price of each one.
