Aldi slashes cost of 1.5 litre prosecco magnum to under £10 just in time for Christmas

Aldi has a treat for its shoppers as they have a bargain price on prosecco this year

With the holiday season on the horizon, it is the perfect time to begin stocking up on booze ready for the big day.

It seems that there is nowhere better than Aldi to go to grab your Christmas drinks, as the supermarket has announced that they are selling a 1.5 litre magnum of prosecco for just £10!

Shoppers have understandably gone wild for the bargain offer on the Costellore Prosecco DOC Magnum, which is usually priced at a fair £13.99, but has been reduced to just £9.99.

With notes of peach, apple, pear and lemon zest, the fizz is sure to please the palette.

However, it’s not the only banging offer that Aldi has on booze this year.

Aldi’s specially selected French Cairanne has been deemed the best festive tipple according to The Times‘ wine critic Jane MacQuitty, who said it is a ‘festive gift to the nation’, and ‘the bottle to buy’ this Christmas.

And if you think that means the bottle will be prohibitively expensive, you can think again. Aldi have actually reduced the price of the bottle from £8.99 to £3.49.

Writing for The Times, MacQuitty said: “Savvy shoppers have always raced to Aldi for their weekly winter £3.49 specials, but of the dozen popping up this month and next, its tasty 2021 Specially Selected French Cairanne, a skilful blend of 60 per cent grenache, 25 percent syrah, 10 percent mourvedre and 5 percent carignan, is the bottle to buy.”

“Recommended in my Summer Top 100 at its full £8.99 price, a few months of extra age have seen this Cairanne’s silky tannins and warm thyme and pine sunny hillside scents and tastes develop into a more mature, excellent, earthy, cracked black pepper southern Rhône.”

But you have to be quick! The reduced price point only lasts for one week from 11 December so it might be worth stocking up to see you through the festivities.
