BAGGED WINE
EXPANDS PRODUCT LINE WITH PRODUCTS FOR THE GIFT BASKET MARKET
Blind
Wine Tasting Kits Now Available For Gift Baskets
NEWPORT
BEACH, Calif., August 26, 2003
– Building on the success of its initial products, Bagged Wine
announces the availability of wine tasting kits for the gift basket
market.
According
to Jim Kennedy, Bagged Wine’s President, “Since the introduction of
our first products, the response has been very encouraging. Feedback from the industry indicated that three bags was
ideal, so we created the three bag "Intro" kit specifically
for the gift basket market and have gotten positive initial reaction
from the industry.
Bagged
Wine’s Blind Tasting Kits consist of high-quality, stain-resistant,
numbered velvet bags with cord lock closures for blind wine tasting. The new kit, called “Intro” is available in three colors
– black, maroon, or navy – and comes packaged with a set of 3 bags.
The kits have a wholesale price of $5.50.
Bagged Wine’s Blind “Intro” Tasting Kits are available
immediately though its representatives and directly from Bagged Wine.
“I
can't emphasize enough the importance of blind wine tasting in this time
of confusion in the wine industry.
From the Charles Shaw phenomenon to the general consensus of over
priced wine, consumers can be confused and even misled by the bottle.
Labels are simply a way to identify wine, though they bring with
them the great ability to influence and confuse wine drinkers. Blind
tasting is the only way for consumers to judge wine accurately and
impartially, “ according to Mr. Kennedy
In
addition to Bagged Wine’s new “Intro” Blind Tasting Kit, it has
the “Starter” Blind Tasting Kit with 5 bags that has a suggested
retail price of $19.95; and “Collector” Blind Tasting Kit with 20 bags
that retails for $59.95. Bagged
Wine’s Blind Tasting Kits are available though wineries, wine
retailers, and directly on its website at www.baggedwine.com.
