Aldi orange wine returns for summer with a sparkling twist
Last summer, orange wine was one of the world's most talked-about drinks trends, fuelled by social media buzz and a growing appetite for unique flavour profiles.
Wine bars were offering it by the glass for upwards of £8–£10.

Aldi launched its own take on the innovative tipple, which became a sensation among shoppers when it launched, seeing almost 5,000 bottles fly off the shelves in the first week alone - with sales tripling by the second week.
Aldi's Specially Selected Chassaux et Fils Sparkling Orange Wine is aromatic and inviting from the first sip. The nose lifts with notes of apricot and subtle floral tones, while the palate follows with a gentle tannic grip adding texture and intrigue.
Long and complex, it's been created to leave a 'lingering impression of orange marmalade and minerality', pairing well alongside a charcuterie board – perfect for golden hour catch-ups in the garden.
Aldi's Specially Selected Chassaux et Fils Sparkling Orange Wine (£9.99, 75cl) is available now.

Aldi supermarkets to finally launch delivery in Australia after 25 years: 'This is huge'
A convenient online shopping feature has finally arrived at Aldi Australia stores after 25 years. Commencing Tuesday July 8, the budget supermarket chain will be trialling on-demand grocery delivery in their Canberra stores, thanks to a new partnership with DoorDash. While initially disappointing for those outside the capital, the feature is expected to roll out nationally over the next few months. For now, shoppers in Canberra will be able to shop Aldi's exclusive range of products at the touch of a button - and have their shopping delivered right to their door. This means no more juggling groceries to keep up with Aldi's notoriously fast in-store cashiers. The partnership is a first for the budget supermarket chain, which had up until now resisted following other major supermarkets into offering on-demand grocery delivery services. Aldi Australia's Chief Commercial Officer, Jordan Lack, told FEMAIL that an online shopping delivery feature was something their customers had been requesting for quite some time. 'We know many Aldi shoppers have been eagerly awaiting news from us about adding a delivery service to our offering,' Jordan said. He confirmed that for the time being, Aldi's availability on DoorDash is temporarily limited to Canberra while the collaboration is in a trial phrase. But the supermarket CCO assured Aussie shoppers that plans to offer the on-demand delivery service nationally were already well under way and would commence shortly. 'A trial is currently being held in Canberra and we look forward to rolling out our partnership with DoorDash nationally in the coming months,' Jordan said. 'Keep checking the DoorDash app to see when an Aldi store near you is available for delivery.' Through the app, Canberrans will be able to order more than 1,800 Aldi-stocked products including fresh fruit and vegies, meat, seafood, dairy, bread and household essentials. To order groceries, all shoppers need to do is download the DoorDash app or visit the website and search for 'Aldi' on the platform. Customers will then be able to browse through the items available and add them to their online cart to purchase. Shoppers can decide if they would like their 'on-demand' shopping order to be delivered as soon as possible, or, at a later time window that suits them. The items will then arrive straight to the customer's door. Simon Rossi, DoorDash APAC's Vice President said: 'We are thrilled to partner with ALDI to deliver greater convenience, choice and affordability to the people of Canberra.' 'Through this new partnership, we're making it more accessible for shoppers to get their favourite ALDI products delivered directly to their door.' Outside of Australia, Aldi is already in partnership with DoorDash in the US, offering the on-demand grocery delivery store to American shoppers. Aldi has been operating in Australia for almost 25-years after opening its first two Sydney stores in 2001. Unlike its major supermarket competitors Coles and Woolworths, the smaller German-based supermarket chain has tread tentatively into online shopping in Australia. Just under a year ago, Jordan told the Australian Financial Review that they'd dismantled their online team because the operation costs too greatly affected their product costing structure. Aldi's CCO explained at the time that they'd opted to prioritise 'value' of cheaper groceries sold in-store 'over convenience' of online shopping. 'The greater concern is the impact on cost structure as fundamentally keeping our costs low has a direct impact on the prices we can offer our customers,' he told the publication.

How to keep cool in hot weather Most of us welcome hot weather, but when it's too hot, there are health risks. Here are three ways to keep cool according to the NHS... Keep out of the heat if you can. If you have to go outside, stay in the shade especially between 11am and 3pm, wear sunscreen, a hat and light clothes, and avoid exercise or activity that makes you hotter. Cool yourself down. Have cold food and drinks, avoid alcohol, caffeine and hot drinks, and have a cool shower or put cool water on your skin or clothes. Keep your living space cool. Close windows during the day and open them at night when the temperature outside has gone down. Electric fans can help if the temperature is below 35 degrees. Check the temperature of rooms, especially where people at higher risk live and sleep. "The Temperate® fibre filling and HYDROCOOL® technology applied to the fabric work together to wick moisture away from the skin, helping you to enjoy a more restful night's sleep." More hacks to keep cool Corey Sims at CSDB revealed that a free hack to keep yourself cool at night is to freeze your bed sheets and pyjamas. The expert added that you can also fill a spray bottle with water, and use it to spray your curtains, which will lower the temperature of your home. "Dampen your curtains to cool the room," the expert advised toasty homeowners. "As air blows across the wet drapes, evaporating water absorbs heat and lowers the room temperature. "The hot weather also ensures the curtains dry quickly without smelling damp."
