It's called Niersteiner, or rather "Bereich Nierstein". South of Hesse.

I used to love Niersteiner Gutes Domtal. Is that the same?

Yes. That's the very real thing, from the municipality of Nierstein. The surrounding municipalities are only allowed to sell "Bereich Nierstein", district Nierstein. Doesn't make a difference in the wine, though, as far as I can tell.

Here's a map. "Gutes Domtal" is the vineyards on the bottom left of the map.

ALDI beer update

Spaten Oktoberfest beer has already dropped by 10p, to £1.19.

Thanks Schamansky. I think I deserve a bottle for Christmas Day;)
I've spent the afternoon reading this entire thread and now have 2 long lists to take with me tomorrow. There goes the budget!

Has anyone bought from either aldi's or lidl a little square glass or plastic container of green coloured apple scented crystals, I bought one for my bathroom and it's run out. I've looked in both Aldi and Lidl and can't find them and am wondering if maybe I bought them somewhere else ro they've stopped stocking them.

Anyone help please?

I buy colour and bio and wondered if theirs are any good?

Thanks.

I've used colour and bio tablets from both. They work great - I've not bought branded or other supermarket own brand tablets for years. Can also recommend the colour liquid - find it's better for dark clothes than tabs.

if you like special k cereal with berries try the crown fields rice and wheat flakes with red berries the fruit content is great plus fruit and fibre cereal is also good.:beer:

We usually use persil and do not like the supermarket own washing powders, but the Aldi one is good.

Has anyone bought the 3 bird roast?

i went into aldi looking for one of these and NONE! so i asked and apparently they arent leaving the depot til the 15th so wont be in store til after then. that was the brighton branch and i'm sure that would be for the other stores too! i wish they would hurry up though i want one! lol

Schamansky

The local store managers told me that the Three Bird Roasts were just flying out of the store (must have been this Vickery guy) and that they're having problems reordering.

Correction on the Niersteiner: Nierstein and surrounding area is not in Hesse but on the left bank of the Rhine, in an area called Rheinhessen but belonging to the country of Rhineland-Palatinate, and not to Hesse. Well, it's not particularly earth-shaking, but I couldn't leave it like that.
