Three tips to save when buying rosé wine this summer
Plus, save on a £49 on Marc Jacobs perfume SUN SAVERS Three tips to save when buying rosé wine this summer Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) WARMER weather is the perfect time to enjoy a cool glass of rosé wine. The pink drink has become more popular than ever over recent years. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up But there are plenty of ways to save some cash when raising a glass or two . . . WALLET FRIENDLY: Premium brand Whispering Angel is a big favourite of rosé drinkers, but at over £20 a bottle it leaves a dent in your finances. Instead, try Aldi's Sainte Victoire Provence rosé, £11.99, which has similar notes of citrus and pear. Also, stock up on rosé and other wine when supermarkets are running 'buy six and save 25 per cent' deals. These promotions often happen close to bank holidays and other seasonal events so keep an eye out. Meanwhile, Amazon Fresh has launched a rosé for a budget £5.49. BERRY NICE: One affordable way to elevate your glass of rosé may already be sitting in your fridge, according to Sam Caporn, Aldi's wine expert. She says: 'Popping a strawberry or two into a glass is a simple but effective way to enhance the red berry notes found in so many popular rosés. 'Aroma is as important as taste, as the two combine to create flavour. A strawberry helps bring out those juicy red- fruit notes beautifully. If you like your rosé on ice — known as a rosé piscine — try freezing strawberry slices in ice cubes. It keeps your wine chilled and looks gorgeous, too.' GETTING SLUSHY: As with other wines, rosé can start to lose its flavour if it's left open for longer than a couple of days. Five Lidl rosés you need this summer, according to a wine expert - a £6.99 buy is as light & crispy as £22 Whispering Angel But there's no need to tip it down the drain — you can still use it in cocktails. Try mixing with frozen strawberries, a little elderflower cordial and ice to make a grown-up slushie that should go down a treat on a hot day. All prices on page correct at time of going to press.
