Riesling lovers have lucked out in Aldi's new range. Along with the 2014 New Zealand Riesling there's this delicious off-dry example from Henry of Pelham (one of few Canadian wines in UK supermarkets, especially at this price). It's certainly off-dry, but not cloying, as racy lemon acidity cuts through the ripe, sweet nectarine flavours. Available online only.
