What can I say, it’s been a week. Between a crazy work schedule and life, here I am, late to the party and posting about the last wine featured on TJ Tuesday, Intermingle. I snagged a bottle of Intermingle at Aldi, and I have to say, I am pleasantly surprised. Typically, I limit myself to one or two glasses during the wine tasting, but with everything going on, I barely had a chance to finish one. I ended up saving the bottle and sipping on it all week, and I have to say, it did not disappoint. The flavors did not disintegrate, and quite honestly, I think I enjoyed the bottle more a few days in. But without further ado, here are my tasting notes on Intermingle.

TASTING NOTES:

  • Synthetic cork

  • Full body, fruit-forward, and jammy

  • Bold yet smooth

  • Notes of blackberry and raspberry with hints of vanilla and spice, think cinnamon

  • A bit of lingering finish in the back of the mouth; medium/heavy tannins

Verdict:

Y’all, for $6.99 this bottle is a steal. Whether you drink the entire bottle in one sitting or space it out over several days, it does not disappoint. In fact, most of the wine that I’ve sampled over the last month from Aldi has been a winner. If you get your hands on this bottle, I’d love to hear what you think!

Until Next Time!
