Weekend wining and dining is sorted – all thanks to ALDI! With an award-winning wine range available in stores nationwide, you’ll find everything from bold reds to crisp whites and sparkling favourites. To help you make the most of every bottle, ALDI have put together the ultimate guide to elevate your next night in.

New to ALDI’s core wine range is the Costellore Primitivo Puglia €8.49, an Italian red with intense aroma with notes of overripe small berry and plum jam, leaving a pleasant ripe red fruit after taste. Serve alongside Italian cold cuts like Italian Prosciutto €1.79 and Italian Milano Salami €1.89 for the perfect Italian aperitivo.
Also hitting shelves is the Grande Alberone Rosso €9.99, a deliciously full-bodied Italian red boasting flavours of ripe fruits and cherries with a touch of oak. It’s best served with pasta - think a rich homemade ragu, served with Specially Selected Rigatoni Gragnano €1.49.
Savour a glass of New Zealand Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc €10.99, an excellent Sauvignon Blanc with grapes grown in the dry, sunny climate of Marlborough on New Zealand’s South Island. Wonderfully dry, it boasts clear citrus notes with gooseberry and tropical fruit flavours on the palate. Best enjoyed with a fresh salad made using seasonal vegetables like Nature’s Pick Asparagus €1.89 or topped with Gortnamona Handmade Irish Goats Cheese €2.99.
Treat yourself to award-winning Castellore Organic Pinot Grigio €8.49, recipient of Gold at the Irish Quality Food and Drink Awards 2024. A straw yellow dry white wine from Northern Italian vineyards. On the nose are rich aromas of peach, citrus and white flowers. The fresh taste is balanced with softness. Best of all, it’s wonderful alongside seafood - try it with Specially Selected Irish Salmon Fillets with Lemon, Dill & Black Pepper €7.29 for a standout dish any day of the week.
Alternatively, choose Gisborne Pinot Gris €9.49, an award-winning, wonderfully off-dry white wine rich in fruity aromas from New Zealand’s renowned Gisborne region. Honeysuckle and mango aromas are joined by notes of melon, yellow pear, and a hint of spice. It’s the perfect partner for a spicy Thai curry - easily made at home using Specially Selected Green Curry Thai Curry Paste €1.49.
Raise a toast with Castellore Organico Organic Prosecco DOCG €14.49, a light sparkling wine from an organic family-run Italian winery. Grapes grown sustainably, without herbicides or pesticides, give an intense nose of pear and green apple, with aromas of acacia flowers and honeycomb to follow. It has a delightful soft mousse. This fabulous fizz goes fantastically with fresh starters like Specially Selected Organic Irish Cold Smoked Salmon €4.19.
Whether it’s a crisp white, a bold red or a sensational sparkler, there’s something for every occasion – only from ALDI!
