Here’s more proof that cheap wine can also be fine wine. 

A $13 bottle of wine sold at Aldi's Australian supermarkets has nabbed the top prize at Australia’s Royal Adelaide Wine Show this year, beating out some bottles that were five times more expensive. 

Aldi’s Blackstone Paddock Cabernet Sauvignon 2018, produced in Margaret River, West Adelaide, took the title of Most Outstanding Red Wine in Show at the wine show, which featured more than 2,500 wines from more than 300 wineries across Australia. The top title has been previously awarded to wines with price tags over $50.
