Last year, Aldi's Côtes de Provence Rosé flew off shelves, and for good reason: It's been ranked one of the best in the world, beating out bottles that cost three times as much, and costs less than a meal at Chipotle. Much to our delight, the $8 bottle is back in Aldi stores starting May 9.
It's only in stores for a limited time, so stock up while you can! Aldi has a few other low-budget summer wines to check out too, including the $9.99 Exquisite Collection Sauvignon Blanc and $7.49 Belletti Prosecco.

Aldi's Côtes de Provence Rosé — an $8 bottle that outperformed $24+ bottles at the Oscars of the wine world — will officially be available in the U.S. starting Wednesday, Sept. 20. It's the first time the rosé will be sold in America, offered in states that allow the chain to sell wine.
Now you can rosé all day, well into fall. Like wearing white after Labor Day, some rules were meant to be broken.

First it launched alcoholic ice pops, then a flamingo pool inflatable and NOW Aldi has basically made our summer plans complete because we've just discovered that its own-brand rosé is one of the best in the whole world — and it only costs $8.
Yep, Aldi's Côtes de Provence Rosé beat rivals that were up to three times the price at The International Wine Challenge (AKA the Oscars of the wine world, apparently) to scoop a prestigious silver medal, The Sun reports.
Hailed for its hints of "strawberry, white fruit, and subtle spice," this pale pink delight is now right at the top of our shopping list.
Tony Baines, Aldi's Joint Managing Director of Corporate Buying, said: "It has been a huge year for innovation at Aldi. We've not only expanded our sparkling range, but also introduced a brand new French initiative.
"We have been working closely with renowned winemaker Jean Claude Mas to change perceptions around French wine, which is often perceived as expensive and intimidating, so it is fantastic to see some of these products acknowledged as some of the best in the world."
