These new private label wines are being launched by SPAR UK to provide customers with a range of high-quality products that prioritize value. The wine range will make its debut at locations starting May 23, 2024 and has been developed by Master of Wine Philippa Carr after extensive research to ensure it meets requirements for taste, quality and value.
The wines prioritize a playful profile thanks to the introduction of three animal characters for each variety with Croxanne the Crocodile, Reginald the Dog and Phil-mingo the Flamingo being showcased on the labels for the white, red and rose, respectively.
SPAR UK Brand Controller Amrit Rebello spoke on the new private label wines saying, "We are delighted to launch our new range of value wines specially curated for our Spar stores. They are not only competitively priced, but they are also designed to be an attractive option for shoppers looking for affordable yet flavourful choices. When the taste, packaging, and price point come together, it makes for the perfect offer."
