Love wine and looking for the perfect gift for yourself this Christmas? Tip: simply create your own wine bar with this little wine fridge, which can hold 24 bottles. In my opinion, the best quarantine investment ever.

And don’t think this is an unnecessary purchase, because of all the factors that can influence the taste of a wine, temperature has the greatest impact. So a wine fridge like this is genuinely a great purchase.

Always the right temperature

You may (quite rightly) be wondering what the right temperature actually is. As a rule of thumb, you can use the following temperatures:

  • Serve fresh white wine, sweet wine, sparkling wine and rosé at 8-12 °C
  • Serve fuller, more complex white wines at 12-16 °C
  • Serve light red wines at 12-16 °C
  • Serve full-bodied, tannic wines at 15-18 °C

Delicious wines

Aldi’s wine fridge costs €149 and you can order it here. Also be sure to read which favorite wines top sommeliers love, as well as which wines that cost next to nothing are genuinely excellent. Then you’ll immediately know what to fill your new wine fridge with. Santé!
