Wine Advent Calendars

Have you heard the big news? Aldi is selling a holiday advent box of wines this fall! The store will include 24 mini bottles, or the equivalent of six full bottles of wine, in a festive holiday box that is perfect for gift-giving or enjoying on your own. It will contain both reds and whites as well as bubbly flavors. Unfortunately the set will only be available in the U.K. this year, but hopefully Aldi will sell it in U.S. stores by next year.

These are among the 10 most popular bar drinks. If you want to test your knowledge, click the link and see if you can guess the rest. Hint: two are super obvious!
