^^ I think with the initial success of the wine we could see some limited editions named like the above as the range progresses.

I doubt there was a royalty concern as much as they might've felt it would've been an too obscure reference for the general public.

Possibly, sometimes I forget that not everyone is as familiar with all her music as we are to pick up up on the reference as many of those who buy the wine wont be as familiar with all her music.

Making music references could make for catchy marketing for the range.

The response is highly positive to date and it's a franchise showing it could be long term successful.

It's a lovely wine and I'm not a huge rosé fan! Cannot believe empty bottles going for £25 on eBay though blink.gif

I have no doubt some will, but they would be better to seek out a new one preferably with wine so they can try it out and sample the goods.

What some people purchase or sell on eBay is baffling at some ridiculous pricing.

It is baffling, i hate seeing people fleece people but as others say we all have a choice to buy it or not, buy 25 quid for an emply bottle is a bit much.

Fans outside of the UK are desperate to get their hands on it nocheer.gif Hopefully it will be available in the rest of Europe soon.

With it a UK only product for now, eBay sellers out to make quick money will be rolling it in.

Interview with Kylie regarding her wine collection: https://www.thedrinksbusiness.com/2020/06/t...-kylie-minogue/

QUOTE
Later this summer Minogue will release a 2019 Côtes de Provence rosé, made from 50% Grenache, 40% Cinsault and 10% Rolle at the 27-hectare Château des Anglades west of St. Tropez, which boasts shale and clay soils and the constant cooling influence of the Mistral. According to winemaker Christophe Gautier, the rosé offers “aromas of pink grapefruit, watermelon and lemon blossom, a textured palate and a mineral finish.

Due to launch at the same time as her Provence pink are a further two wines – a lees-aged Sauvignon Blanc from Gascony and a Pays d’Oc Merlot. The former is a modern take on the grape, abundant with zesty notes of lime blossom and green apple. The Merlot, meanwhile, hails from the chalky soils around St Chinian, resulting in a refreshing drop with silky tannins and a hint of spice. Kylie is keen to expand the range, and a high-end Chardonnay made in collaboration with Margaret River-based Howard Park is in the pipeline.

Kylie Minogue Rosé 2019 Vin de France (£9)

Made from a blend of 80% Carignan and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, this salmon pink rosé was kept on its lees for three months in stainless steel for added complexity. Crisp, juicy and refreshing, it boasts notes of red berries and white blossom.

Kylie Minogue Sauvignon Blanc 2019 IGP Côtes de Gascogne

A modern take on Sauvignon Blanc with 3 g/l of sugar, the grapes were harvested at night and gently pressed to ensure freshness. The textured wine, which spends four months on its lees, offers zesty notes of lime blossom, green apple and lemon.

Kylie Minogue Merlot 2019 IGP Pays d’Oc

Hailing from the chalky soils around St Chinian in the Languedoc, a small portion of the fruit undergoes hot skin-contact maceration, resulting in a fruit-forward drop loaded with cherries and plums, with silky tannins and a hint of spice.

Kylie Minogue Côtes de Provence Rosé 2019

Kylie’s top drop is made from 50% Grenache, 40% Cinsault and 10% Rolle at Château des Anglades near St Tropez, which boasts shale and clay soils. The peach-hued rosé boasts aromas of pink grapefruit, watermelon and lemon blossom, a textured palate and a mineral finish.

Kylie Minogue Margaret River Chardonnay 2019

Due out in autumn, this citrus, pear and peach-scented Chardonnay is a collaboration with Howard Park made with grapes from the southern reaches of Margaret River that are aged both new and old French oak.

Wow 5 different types they really are looking to have a strong kylie range of wine. If its success continues like it started I can see a champagne or prosecco range coming aswell.
