Discount supermarket Lidl is treating shoppers this bank holiday with the nation’s favourite tipple at an unbelievable price.

The chain has announced it will be selling cases of its Allini Prosecco at a 20% discount, reducing the cost from £31.50 to £20 - making the cost of a 70cl bottle to just £3.33. That’s less than a large barista coffee.

Hailing from Veneto, Italy, their Allini Prosecco Spumante DOP is described as “fresh, pear-scented fruit, highly moreish” and “has the clean, pear drop aromas characteristic of good Prosecco - light, crisp and fresh on the palate. A little drier than some Proseccos and very moreish.

And whether you are attempting a bank holiday BBQ or just fancy toasting the long weekend, the sparkler is rated as “very versatile, either on its own or with food.”

Those hoping to bag the bargain will have to be quick, as the six bottle case is a special weekend deal and will only be available in store on August 27 and 28.

And judging by the reception the news has had on social media, it is likely the discount drink will fly off the shelves.

Lidl is well known for its selection of great booze, with its £7.99 Crémant de Bourgogne Blanc named one of the best in the world in the 2017 International Wine & Spirits Competition (IWSC).

The discount priced sparkling wine was awared the accolade alongside Veuve Clicquot 2008 vintage champagne, which sells for around £50 a bottle.
