Wine is a great way to help fill those silent nights, and Aldi's new wine advent calendar gives wine enthusiasts a chance to do that on every anticipatory night in December. The box of wine bottles serves as an adult version of the candy-filled calendars that kids use to mark the days up until Christmas, getting the parents just as excited as their kids are.
The budget grocery chain announced recently that it has partnered with wine brands like JP Chenet and Calvet to release the wine advent calendar. The total package, which comes in a box that holds the 24 different bottles, is expected to cost 49.99 British pounds, which amounts to just two pence (or approximately $2.70 American) per bottle.
