Aldi is introducing a three-bottle limit on its viral Le Grand Poulet Rosé Magnum (1500ml) when it goes on sale for £9.99 later this week. The cap will be in place from Thursday, August 27, to Wednesday, September 2.
The supermarket describes the wine as embodying “freshness and character” and says the larger bottle offers even greater value. Equivalent to two standard bottles, the 150cl magnum is pitched as ideal for summer picnics or dinner parties, with refreshing notes of citrus fruits and red berries.
Wine influencer praise
Aldi calls it a “light, dry rosé” that is “crisp on the palate”. Wine influencer Sam Caporn recently took to Instagram to hail the new addition as a “gorgeous magnum” and “even more of a winner!”
Shoppers can also buy the standard-sized version, Le Petit Poulet Rosé (£6.29, 75cl), reports the Liverpool Echo.
