We all know that summer days are numbered, but with temperatures still in full force, there's no need to dread the end of the season. Instead, why not take the opportunity to enjoy the last days of summer with a glass of rosé in your garden or local park?
Wine expert Lucy Hitchcock from Partner In Wine has shared the perfect wallet-friendly option for Provençal rosé lovers. Her pick is the Aldi Specially Selected Coteaux De Beziers, available for £6.99 – that's a £19 saving compared to the usual price tag of Whispering Angel, which usually retails for £26.
The Aldi option is made in the Languedoc-Roussillon region of France, as opposed to Provence, which explains the lower price tag. But according to Lucy, the flavour profile is still incredibly similar. In her TikTok and Instagram video, she said: “I'm getting this really vibrant burst of red berries. I can smell strawberries, and maybe raspberries. Wow. It's got this amazing crisp acidity that you would expect from a Provence-style rosé.”
Lucy is no stranger to finding budget-friendly alternatives to luxury drinks. Last year, she discovered that Aldi’s £8.99 bottle of Cremant-du-jura is very similar to Laurent-Perrier – but is around £33 cheaper.
So, if you’re looking for a bargain on your next bottle of rosé, be sure to check out Lucy’s latest pick from Aldi. And if you have any other great finds, let us know in the comments below!
