Butter is making a comeback. Grant Burge Buttery Chardonnay Ink is available now exclusively at Dan Murphy's and BWS stores around Australia. The first white wine in the Ink by Grant Burge range has all the hallmarks of the brand's signature style. This opulent Chardonnay has bold aromas of peaches and cream, and toasted almonds. The palate is rich with flavours of brioche and nectarine, and of course, a generous buttery mouthfeel. It all finishes with a refreshing acidity to balance out the blend, making for an approachable and delicious drop. Butter Me Up! Congratulations to Jack Sedgwick, Keely Valente, Craig Stansborough and Caitlin Williams for bringing this to life, and a special thank you to the Shopper Marketing teams, Account Managers, Creative Design team, Content and Creative team, and Digital and Omnichannel Connections team for their fantastic work.

Dolly Parton Wines has launched Down Under! 🥂🦋   The Dolly Parton Wines Australia Sparkling is an elegant Pinot Noir Chardonnay Sparkling Wine sourced from Australia, offering a lively palate of bright, fresh fruits met by subtle toasty nuances and a velvety texture.    The wine displays hints of red fruits and the crispness of red apple peel, carefully balanced with acidity to maintain a refreshing liveliness, with nuanced cashew undertones.   Speaking about the wines, Dolly says, “Dolly Parton Wines is a gift from me to you. Whether you’re sharing stories around the table or simply relaxing in the garden, there’s a little sparkle in every bottle that is designed to bring joy and connection to every gathering.”   Dolly herself graced Aussie television screens on Friday to spread the joy (and sparkle✨) of Dolly Parton Wines.

At the end of September House of Accolade returned for its third year running, bigger and better than ever before! 🍾✨ We opened the doors to our customers from across the UK and Europe, with a new and iconic venue that was as vibrant and dynamic as the showcase itself, serving as the perfect funky backdrop to symbolise the creativity and bold vision for the coming year.  For the first time, we introduced a new, tailored channel approach, enabling a clear separation of concepts for On Trade and Off Trade, showing attendees exactly how the brand activations would come to life in their respective markets. Over 3 days 125 customers were invited to learn about bold new formats by Mud House and Jam Shed, experience our Hardys Joy of Certainty campaign in action, see our Echo Falls brand activation come to life and celebrate the newly launched Dolly Wines in style! The space even had a dedicated winemaker area, offering an exclusive opportunity to engage in personalised tastings with Helen McCarthy, Director Global Winemaking, and Gerhard. Swart, Head Winemaker and Production Manager. A huge thank you and congratulations to Rebecca Hoggett and Jo Willett for organising and running this huge event for another successful year, our Marketing and Category teams and F&BM! #Innovation #AccoladeWines #Retail #CustomerEngagement
