Fletcher's @ Aldi?

Post by Sideways »

This Christmas Aldi is offering Fletcher's 10yo Tawny Port for £7.99 (75cl).

Anyone familiar with Fletcher's?

Aldi do bring out some decent wines over the Christmas period (and throughout the year), worth checking out if you generally avoid the place.
Vintage Shmintage.

Have a look at the small print on the bottle and see who the producer is. It's bound to be someone's B-label.
I know that in the past Quinta do Ventozelo provided Aldi with big bulks of bad port, so I wouldn't be surprised if this is made by Real Companhia Velha.
