If you consider yourself a bit of a wine enthusiast, you'll be thrilled to hear that the Aldi Wine Club is on the hunt for some "budding wine connoisseurs to join [their] new panel." While you won't actually get paid for the gig, you'll have a chance to test out several new wines, completely free of charge.
Over the course of the next three months, Aldi aims to select 30 people for the Aldi Wine Club. The lucky candidates will sample current and forthcoming wines, with three delicious bottles sent to their home to sample over a six week period. All the wine connoisseurs need to do is to review the wines, tweet about them, and simply enjoy the free vino.
If you think you're up for the job, candidates in the UK need to email the grocery store chain with information such as your name, Twitter handle, and 150 words on why you think you're fit for the Aldi Wine Club.
