Aldi brings back its cult blue 'fish wine' dupe
Crisp, zesty and best paired with seafood, it went viral last year and sold out quickly, so buyers are predicting it's likely to fly off shelves again.
Known among some fans as the 'Fish Wine' thanks to its pairing with seafood, this crisp and clean white wine became a hit when it first launched.
The Specially Selected Rías Baixas Albariño is made in Spain's renowned Rías Baixas region, celebrated for producing some of the world's finest Albariños.
With its zesty citrus notes, subtle minerality and refreshing finish, this wine is best paired with a seafood feast.
Wine bloggers @tomgilbeywine (658k followers) and @thewinewally (120k followers) took to social media to share their thoughts on the wine.
TomGilbeyWine said: 'If you want peaches, nectarines and white flowers, you can get them for well under ten quid.'
Meanwhile, TheWineWally said: 'If you like really crisp, refreshing white wines, this is the one, I'm telling you.'
It follows the success of Le Petit Poulet Rosé (£6.49) – a Provence-style rosé offering a purse-friendly alternative to La Vieille Ferme, also known as 'Chicken Wine'.

This delicately pale rosé bursts with citrus and red berry notes, delivering all the flavours of Provence without the hefty price tag.
At 24% cheaper than La Vieille Ferme Rosé, it has been praised by those looking to create the perfect aperitif moment while soaking up the sun.
Also this week, Aldi is dropping the price of its Aperini Aperitivo Spritz (its take on the classic Italian spritz) from £3.99 to £3.49 – designed for summer sipping on a budget.

Mango H1 turnover surges on ‘value proposition, robust model'
Mango said its collections which are 100% designed in Barcelona, along with its value proposition, remain popular with customers, driving the growth of its lines in H1. International business accounted for 78% of total turnover in the first half of the year. Spain, France, Türkiye, Germany and the United States are the markets that have recorded the highest turnover figures. During H1 of 2025, Mango continued to expand its physical channel, with 78 new openings and 30 refurbishments. At the end of June, the company had a total of 2,925 points of sale in more than 120 markets worldwide, of which more than 1,800 are company-owned and franchised shops and nearly 1,100 are corner locations. Mango's online channel has continued to grow, representing 31% of total turnover for the first half of the year. This reaffirms the strength of Mango's digital channel, which remains above the sector average and continues to be one of the key levers of the company's business model. In terms of investment, during the first half of 2025, Mango has allocated around €110m to strategic projects, 70% of which are concentrated on shop openings and refurbishments. The rest has been directed to key initiatives such as the development of Mango's new corporate campus, technological transformation and the last phase of the logistics centre expansion in Lliçà. The company has also strengthened its commitment to sustainability with new collaboration agreements with The Post Fiber and Circulose, as part of its circular fashion and environmental impact reduction strategy. Toni Ruiz, chairman and CEO of Mango, said: 'In an uncertain sectorial, macroeconomic and geopolitical environment, the positive results of the first half of the year confirm the robustness of our model and strengthen our strategy. We continue to grow with a long-term vision, executing a differential value proposition that is well received by our customers around the world, and with continuous improvement of our sales channels".

Reason revealed why Barcelona have not secured second licence for Joan Gamper trophy
The traditional Joan Gamper trophy tends to take place ahead of the new La Liga season, a curtain raiser for the Barcelona fans to see their side before they get into the throes of competition. It was announced by the club for the 10th of August, against Italian side Como, but there are now doubts over whether it will be able to take place at the renovated Camp Nou. Barcelona were due to return to their stadium for the first time in two years, but after securing a licence to hold events at the ground, they are still awaiting a second licence necessary to open the stadium to fans again. The Catalan side have suggested to the city council that they could perhaps open the ground to a reduced capacity, only opening certain zones and allowing around 30,000 fans in. Why Barcelona have not secured second licence Without the second licence from the council though, Barcelona cannot open Camp Nou to the public at all. The council have previously expressed doubts about their ability to secure the licence in time for the Gamper on the 10th of August, and with good reason. Cadena SER explain that the council still have not received the relevant documents from Barcelona in order to complete the application. Image via FC Barcelona The process tends to take around five to six months, and while there is a certain desire to speed through the bureaucracy from the council too, they are unable to send inspectors to the site while the application is not complete. The reason Barcelona have not sent the documentation is due to further delays in the work, which is already eight months behind schedule. Consequences for Barcelona The consequences for the Blaugrana are significant. It could lead a major issue in terms of their salary limit, as without a proof of product before the end of August, Barcelona may not be able to include their €100m VIP seat lease in their accounts. In addition, it is now a race against time for the Blaugrana to be ready for their first Liga match on the 14th of September against Valencia.

EU Warns Spain Over BBVA-Sabadell Merger Intervention
The European Union began proceedings against Spain over its intervention in banking mergers after the government blocked the legal combination of BBVA BBVA 0.28%increase; green up pointing triangle and Sabadell SAB 0.35%increase; green up pointing triangle for at least three years. The European Commission, the EU's executive arm, said Thursday in a formal notice that Spanish laws that give Madrid authority to intervene in banking acquisitions undermine the exclusive competences of the European Central Bank and national supervisors, and restrict the fundamental EU freedoms of establishment and capital movements.
