PSA: ALDI is selling a 750ml bottle of *real* champagne for $25. Not a drill.

 

We know it’s probably too soon after the weekend to start talking about wine, but this is very important news for booze lovers.

…Plus, who are we kidding; it’s never too early in the week for wine. Especially champagne.

We know what you’re thinking: “But champagne is for fancy people”, maybe even: “But I don’t own champagne flutes.”

Stop that negativity at once.

Aldi has a bottle of bubbly on sale for $25 right now, and we won’t tell anyone if you drink it out of a coffee mug.

(Or you could buy some flutes when you get there – they sell those too.)

If we’ve learnt anything this year it’s that supermarket giants Aldi don’t mess around when it comes to good-quality drop at very attractive prices.

(Translation: It tastes 1000 times better than goon).

In fact, just last week they won two major awards for their $6.99 bottle of red.

And their Monsigny Champagne Premier Cru is just as impressive – with a Sydney International Wine award of its own.

Here’s what else we know about our favourite new fizz:

It’s actually made in Champagne, France (yes – this is the real deal, people), and it has “subtle brioche and pear citrus notes” and a “seductively elegant palate”…which sounds very good to us.

It’s also described on their website as “fresh and full with loads of finesse and style” so it’s perfect for you – my fresh and stylish friend.

So grab yourself a bottle (or several if you want to stock up for festive season) and clink on home.

What are you waiting for?
