Sarah later explained that her sparkling wine not only comes in a luxurious bottle, but is 11.5% ABV.
The posh, dry wine is normally priced at £8.99, but in most stores, has been slashed down to £4.99.

Why do Aldi and Lidl have such fast checkouts
IF you’ve ever shopped in Aldi or Lidl then you’ll probably have experienced its ultra-fast checkout staff.
Aldi’s speedy reputation is no mistake, in fact, the supermarket claims that its tills are 40 per cent quicker than rivals.
It’s all part of Aldi’s plan to be as efficient as possible - and this, the budget shop claims, helps keep costs low for shoppers.
Efficient barcodes on packaging means staff are able to scan items as quickly as possible, with the majority of products having multiple barcodes to speed up the process.
It also uses “shelf-ready” packaging which keeps costs low when it comes to replenishing stock.
At the same time, other Aldi fans praised the price of the wine, and shared their honest reviews.
One alcohol enthusiast explained: “This is my fav. It's beautiful, that is some bargain...enjoy.”
