Impressive wines at the Aldi Stores UK tasting. Mike James knows his stuff with a cracking trio of Tasmanian wines and a stonkingly good #alentejo championing #portuguesewines. And lots more
Two further delicious and carefully crafted whites by Mike James for Aldi Stores UK at a cracking 6.99 -fresh, classic Clare valley Riesling and the welcome sight of a fruity but zesty #vouvray. #great stuff
Right, here’s Aldi Stores UK Exquisite Collection Sauvignon Blanc. But... look at the signature on the bottom right. It’s David Hohnen OA. The man behind Cape Mentelle and Cloudy Bay. A living wine legend. This is £5.99. Cloudy Bay today is £22.99.
Brilliant to see The Doctors SB on SaturdayKitchen John Forrest clever man...research science dedication commercial awareness ➡️ wine. Love it.
Tasmanian Pinot Noir on the shelves Aldi Stores UK £10.99 steal. Utterly ace. #devilwouldbeproud

Another classic Aldi Stores UK Lot Series from the ‘cellar’ Lot 04 Leyda Sauvignon 2014. Opened with some trepidation, but honestly think it was tasting better than on release.
