Enjoy mulled wine even without the Christmas market: which supermarket mulled wine can convince in terms of taste?

Find out here.

Most of the

Christmas markets

and thus also

mulled wine stalls

cannot take place again this year due to the corona pandemic.

But that doesn't mean that you have to do without the traditional

mulled wine in the run-up to Christmas

!

You could make it yourself at home * ... But honestly, who feels like it every time when there is also

ready-mixed mulled wine

to buy

in bottles

?

It doesn't have to be bad - if you know which one to buy.

With this you can

bring

the

Christmas market feeling home

at least a little.

Mulled wine from the supermarket in the taste test: test winner from the discounter

In 2020, the consumer portalvergleich.org put

eight mulled wines from various supermarkets and discounters

through their paces.

These included retail brands as well as own brands from the discounters Lidl, Netto, Penny and Aldi Nord as well as the supermarkets Edeka, Kaufland and Rewe.

The

winner of the

taste test

was a private

label of

the discounter

Lidl

: The "

German Winzerglühwein

" is not only priced at 1.73 euros, it is in the mid-range, but also has very good grades in all categories. The Lidl wine was convincing with its balance: light punch note, nicely fruity, but not too sweet, is the verdict. Overall, he got a

good overall grade (1.9)

and thus prevailed against the seven other mulled wine products tested.

If you

prefer

white mulled wine

, second place in the taste test might be something for you:

Kaufland's

Gotano mulled wine made from white wine”

also scored

well

with an overall score of 2.1

.

According tovergleich.org, the taste is pleasantly mild with citric notes.

But it's not exactly cheap: the bottle costs 2.91 euros.

In last place

, however, landed the product “Winzer Glühwein Spätburgunder” from

Netto (own brand)

.

It only achieved a satisfactory grade (3.4).

In terms of taste, the mulled wine could not convince: It was perceived as bitter and alcohol-heavy and was noticeable negatively due to an unsuitable, slightly menthol-like note.
