The wines in Aldi’s smart own label range are usually pretty good value for money but this one’s outrageously good. Made in the south of the North Island, in a region called Wairarapa. And the fairly fussy Pinot Noir grape (it won’t ripen properly unless the climate’s just right: not too hot, not too cold, not too wet) seems to love it here. Ripe and juicy with plum fruits and a smoky kick, it’s a bargain for Pinot. And you can fit two in the Beamish.
