Celebrate International Sauvignon Blanc Day with Aldi’s affordable selection

Bottoms up, Brits!

Today, Friday May 1, marks International Sauvignon Blanc Day – will you be celebrating?

Yes, today is the day to celebrate all that’s good about the fabulous dry white wine.

And, if you don’t have any in the fridge, then supermarket Aldi is there to lend a helping hand.

If you’re popping into store to do your weekly shop, why not add a couple of bottles of the crisp white to your essentials list?

After all, it is almost the weekend, and due to the UK lockdown it’s not like you can head to the pub and order yourself a large glass there!

“Spring has sprung and what better time to enjoy a glass of crisp, herbaceous Sauvignon than International Sauvignon Blanc Day,” an Aldi rep said.

It said: “Whether you prefer a mouth-watering New Zealand Sauvignon or something in the more traditional French style, Aldi has something for everyone.”

Won’t break the bank

Indeed, we’ve spotted a few bottles online that most definitely won’t break the bank.

The Mineral Blocks Sauvignon Blanc costs £6.99 per bottle.

Aldi revealed: “This is a refreshing and crisp, classic Sauvignon Blanc. Mineral undertones are supported by delicate flavours of tropical fruit and citrus flavours on the nose.”

It added: “The distinctive aromas support a wonderfully balanced palate, presenting purity of ripe fruit, coupled with a lingering harmonious finish.”

Bottoms up!

We have a feeling International Sauvignon Blanc Day could offer the perfect excuse for that first lockdown hangover…
