Peaks & Tides

Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

This was good. It needs some time to open up and breathe for the full flavor to bloom. Once those sophisticated notes of berry, basil, and leather begin to tingle, I am reminded that Q3 taxes are overdue and the basement still needs formal radon testing. I will be having a second glass. Another good Aldi provision. — 3 years ago

Freeman's Bay

Winemaker's Reserve Sauvignon Blanc 2020

Very surprised with this wine from Aldi. I’m normally a red drinker but began to pair my wine with dinner and this went swimmingly with a laksa. Very very smooth and easy to drink. — 4 years ago

Benoit Valérie Calvet

Toro Loco Superior Utiel-Requena Tempranillo 2022

Very light, drinkable and only 4.19 from Aldi — a year ago

Sunshine Bay

Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2021

I've always liked this wine, but the 2021 vintage is pretty darn good, maybe even better than last year. Has some peach flavors in it and a little bit of lemon. You can smell the peach as soon as you open the bottle. Definitely will buy it again! You can find it at Aldi; it was $7.95 today! — 3 years ago

Venturer Series Riverina Durif 2020

Is it amazing? Can’t say that. Is it really “durify”? Not that either. But it is pretty good. Low harshness and no sourness. — 3 years ago

Quarter Cut

Bourbon Barrel Aged California Cabernet Sauvignon 2020

A guy at Aldi recommended it while I was browsing the wines — I never thought I’d rave about a wine from Aldi, but damn this was super drinkable (with or without food). New (cheap) fav for sure! — 3 years ago

Sargent Canyon

Proprietor's Selection Central Coast Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

Surprised by ALDI again! Good wine for the price for sure! Would buy again! — 3 years ago

Aldi

The Exquisite Collection Côtes de Provence Rosé Blend

Good Aldi Rosé that is great for the hot days of summer, very light, not a lot of depth or complexity but it's dry and light berry. Would buy again — 3 years ago

You need to try this one, There is the appellation of Bandol with its plethora of producers, some good, some mediocre; and then there is Château Pradeaux, the unique, inimitable, standard bearer for this ancient wine-growing district. Pradeaux is situated on the outskirts of the town of St. Cyr Sur Mer, which lies directly on the Mediterranean between Toulon and Marseilles. The estate is owned by the Portalis family who have owned this property since before the French Revolution. The domaine is currently under the direction of Cyrille Portalis, who continues to maintain the great traditions of this estate. Although the majority of the vineyards are planted to Mourvèdre, the Château Pradeaux Bandol Rosé is composed of Cinsault and Grenache as well as Mourvèdre. After a short maceration on the skins, in order to extract a light color, the juice is fermented at low temperatures to retain freshness, fruit and bouquet. After being aged in stainless steel cuves, the wine is normally bottled in the spring of the year following harvest. It is one of the richest of the rosés of France; dry but full-bodied with a floral bouquet. It is a very limited production wine, as most of the production at Château Pradeaux is used to make the formidable Bandol Rouge.
