It’s not often that something completely new comes along in the traditional world of wines, so the Island Wine Company are particularly excited about their latest arrivals.
Beach Life wines are a trio from Southern France: a zesty Sauvignon Blanc, a succulent and mouth watering rosé and a supple and easy drinking Merlot, all in stylish modern packaging. Nothing revolutionary about that you might think, until you realise that they are bottled in plastic!
Perfect for the beach or on a boat
The lightweight PET format makes the Beach Life wines perfect for picnics, the beach or on a boat.
Anywhere in fact, that you would prefer not to have a glass bottle, which is heavier, more difficult to dispose of and more likely to smash.
Ideal for summer events
With all the outside events going on through the summer where glass bottles are not permitted, these wines are the ideal solution.
If you’re off to an open-air event or festival, maybe you should have a bottle of Beach Life in your backpack.
“We were really impressed with the concept when we first saw it,” says Matt Whishaw of The Island Wine Company, “and then delighted by the quality of the wines in the bottle as well. They are well-made and show off their elegant French origins with pride. They are well worth the £6.99 RRP.”
Lower carbon footprint
The Beach Life wines have a lower carbon footprint than their glass bottled equivalents, due to lower transport costs and the massive amount of energy required to produce and recycle glass bottles, so as well as tasting great, they’re also good for the environment.
Where can I buy them?
The Beach Life wines are currently stocked by the following outlets:
Chale Green Stores
Bembridge Deli
Galley Provisions in Seaview
