Anyone any idea if this wine was specifically done for Aldi & if it's available from anywhere else or something very similar - the normal Gris that aldi have on the shelves isn't a patch on this and my stash has now ran dry

Lidl also carries onehttps://www.aldi.co.uk/specially-selected-alsace-p...

I think we've all ranted about the way ALDI stock things together and 1 thing is always sold out... For the past 2 weeks they've been out of white chocolate mousse bars, but everything else was in stock. I was lucky enough to snag 1 today, but i had to carefully look it over to make sure it wasn't damaged/something someone chucked back or the staff picked up.
Also...don't tell J*m*e Ol*v*r.. but I spotted this today.

They're 2 different wines. the one on the right being the marginally more expensive one.
You are correct. S enjoys, maybe 3, max, glasses of wine a week. Duoro is her go to. I bought her a bottle of the other some weeks ago (in error) and she said it was very good, but not AS good as Duoro. IIRC it was just under £4. CharlesdeGaulle said:
Not food and drink, but I was chuffed with my compost bins from Lidl, in the sad way that only gardeners can be excited about this sort of stuff.
I noticed those small multi pots for getting things growing. was kinda interested in that in order to grow chilies. But IDK..I don't really have a green thumb (ive never gardened in any way)CharlesdeGaulle said:

Yeah, but they're square. You don't want square ones, mate. You want round ones. So you can stir your creation. Can't stir in a square.

The aldi cheap pinot gris is horrible.

anyone had the aldi branded german and dutch bottled beers? was looking for the german one for the past 2 weeks but its always been out of stock! unlike the dutch one.
The Rheinbacher Pilsner cans disappeared from my local store about 10 days ago and I bought the last 3 bottles of same earlier this week.Not sure if it's been disrupted by import/export issues at ports, or whether Aldi is having a major supplier switch?
I think we can be sure that something will fill that gap though.

I switched from Lidl to Aldi a few months back and I have to say the Aldi steaks are as consistently good as the Lidl steaks were consistently bad. I just had the 16oz rump with a slab of Stilton on top and it was like a giant fillet steak. Quite superb with a bottle of the Animus Douro too. Je suis pogged!
