I love how the word "Wine" is generally followed by the word "snob" in Limited News publications.

My limited experience with wine has been mixed. I have tried their more expensive Rioja at under $10 and found it way too acidic. Their $10 port which I was going to top up my port barrel, ended up pouring it down the sink, however the Champagne at around $20 I found enjoyable, but would still put my money with some Australian Sparkling (Brown Bros, Clover Hill). The wines are certainly priced low and targeted for a certain market, but not for me.
If there was a topic on their premium Jams I would highly recommend, along with some of their tools that you would use twice a year. Half of my man cave is made up of Aldi bits and pieces, but no Aldi wine in the cellar.
