• The new range includes two stuffed crust pizzas and a fully loaded meat feast
• Aldi shoppers have praised the Carlos takeaway range, with one customer saying it’s ‘just like Domino’s’, and another saying ‘that pizza looks so good’[1]
• Following the success of Aldi’s Carlos Garlic Pizza Bread, which had fans going crazy for the Domino’s style product, Aldi has expanded its takeaway range to include three new delicious pizzas

Brits in need of a takeaway fix whilst enjoying the Euros should look no further than Aldi’s latest Carlos launches, which include a selection of takeaway style pizzas, available in three new flavours – Cheese Feast, Double Pepperoni and Meat Feast, and up to 84% cheaper than the Domino’s alternative.

With Google Trends reporting spikes in searches for ‘At Home Bar’[1] and Aldi’s new Rattan Bar selling out in record time, it’s clear Brits are continuing to create their very own DIY backyard boozers.

But no bar is complete without a tipple or two. And to help eager at-home landlords build a dream watering-hole in the comfort of their home, Aldi is launching the ‘At-Home Bar’ Mixed Case; a selection of six must-have premium tipples from fizz to spirits, so households have all the essentials needed for their at-home bar – for a fraction of the price!

Not only is Aldi’s new ‘buy one, plant one’ BOPO Bottle (£7.99) kind to wallets, saving customers over £22, it’s also kind to the planet. Available to order online from 20^th June and in stores from 24^th June, the initiative will see a tree planted with each BOPO Bottle purchased, in a bid to help tackle the rise of carbon emissions.

Aldi has announced the launch of two brand new Specialbuy tipples as part of its multi award winning gin range[1], Haysmiths. The deliciously celestial Elements by Haymith’s Eclipse Gin and Solar Gin (£14.99 each for 70cl) are available in store and online from the 10^th June, just in time for this year’s Summer Solstice, and have been produced as a Limited Edition batch, meaning once they’re gone, they’re gone!  

From the 6^th  September, Wine Retailer of the Year[1] Aldi will be launching over 70 new wines in store and online as part of its autumn winter wine range. What’s more, to help navigate the offering, the supermarket has teamed up with Mistress of Wine and face of Aldi Wine School, Sam Caporn, to offer practical suggestions based on shoppers’ currant preferences.

From winter warming Italian reds to full flavoured French whites, Sam Caporn has curated the ultimate guide to this year’s autumn winter offering, using classic variants such as Chardonnay and Merlot as an indication of tastes.

Sam Caporn says: “Aldi has really dug deep with this year’s autumn wine range. It’s so refreshing to see that lesser known variants such as the Lebanese Red and Italian Vermentino will be gracing the UK’s wine aisles, so customers can get adventurous with their vino this winter! I hope my suggestions serve as a useful guide for wine fans.”

Sam Caporn’s wine suggestions

Those that LIKE Chardonnay

Those that LIKE medium to full-bodied whites with a lovely mineral finish will LOVE: Aldi’s Specially Selected Cotes du Jura (£7.99). Made from 100% Chardonnay, this tipple is beautifully elegant. Mineral notes are thanks to the limestone-rich Jurassic soils in the Jura region which lies between Burgundy and The Alps in Eastern France.

Those that LIKE Sauvignon Blanc

Fans of fresh, crisp whites that are full of citrus and lime will LOVE: Aldi’s Italian Vermentino (£5.99). Grapes grown in the sunshine of vineyards in Italy give this crisp white wine a fresh and tangy tasty!

Those that LIKE Pinot Grigio

Those that LIKE delicate, lightly scented wines that whisper of the Mediterranean will LOVE: Aldi’s Specially Selected Greco di Tufo (£6.99). Lemon yellow in colour with flavours of honeysuckle, lemon, lime and pineapple, a great example of this wonderful Italian wine.

Those that LIKE Syrah

Fans of spicy and black fruited reds will LOVE: Aldi’s Specially Selected French Minervois (£8.99).  Consisting of aromatics of blackberry, violets, spice and liquorice. Very youthful and vibrant but also textured and flavoursome. Delicious!

Those that LIKE Merlot

Wine fans that enjoy lots of ripeness and flavour will LOVE: Aldi’s Specially Selected French Marselan (£6.49). This little-known French grape variety is a cross between Cabernet Sauvignon and Grenache and boasts wonderful juicy summer pudding flavours with notes with apple, plum, raspberry and blueberries. Definitely one to try!

If you LIKE Cabernet Sauvignon

Vino enthusiasts that LIKE structured, powerful and full-bodied reds, will LOVE: Aldi’s Specially Selected Lebanese Red (£7.99). Deep in colour with  red and black fruit aromas; blackberry, cassis and black cherry.

Those looking to expand their wine expertise this autumn should head to Aldi’s Wine School – a free, online educational hub which helps to transform wine bluffs into wine buffs with modules and tutorials from Mistress of Wine Sam Caporn.
