      Aldi’s famous Veuve Monsigny Champagne Brut has already been voted ‘better than Moet’ by top experts, but the supermarket’s new figures show people are buying it in droves.

      It turns out Aldi sold a whopping 1.25 million bottles of the French champagne last year, which equates to around 3,425 bottles per day, 7 News reported.

      The bottle retails for $21.99 – which is a very cheap alternative to rivals Moet and Bollinger.

      It was awarded the Top 100 Blue Gold at the Sydney International Wine Competition, and blind taste by UK equivalent of Choice, Which?, voted the drop above Laurent-Perrier and Moet, which retail for more than double the price.

      OUR JUDGES

      For every Award winning wine, we publish each Panel Judge's independent opinion of that wine, on that wine's own page of our web site. There is no such thing as a single universal opinion on any wine. But yours is always the most important one.


      2,000 ENTRIES LIMIT

      That's to ensure our International Panel of Judges, collectively, have adequate time to properly and fully judge and select the ultimate Award winners, via a three-phase blind judging system. In the third phase, finalists in food-friendly style Categories, are judged beside food dishes of similar palate weight.
