Spanish red and French white wine for the first time in aluminum cans with Protected Quality seal
Zürich, April 24, 2013: Wild Pelican takes off on the UK market with a white wine and a red wine in special wine cans. The 20 cl (content 18.7 cl) slim format aluminum cans featuring an elegant matt finish are made by Ball Packaging Europe, one of Europe“s leading beverage can makers.
Wild Pelican chose wine cans from Ball Packaging Europe to protect the premium taste of its wines. In a can, neither light nor oxygen nor cork can compromise the quality of wine.
Both the white and the red wine are generally available from retailers. The wines are packaged in slim format 20 cl aluminum cans produced by Ball Packaging Europe for premium wines. The Protected Quality seal guarantees high quality and underscores the premium character of the Wild Pelican products. Matt lacquer lends the cans an elegant finish. The color-coordinated tab makes for a design highlight.
Wild Pelican“s carefully selected high-quality wines come from wine growing regions the world over. For the red wine, Wild Pelican has opted for the tempranillo grape from northern Spain. The wine is redolent of red berries and is an outstanding match for red meats, especially lamb and game. The white is a vibrantly fruity wine from the famous Gascony region in France. It has peach scented aromas and lively citrusy flavor with a pleasant acidity.
The Wild Pelican brand originated out of a love for wine with the aim of creating a wine that is easy to understand and enjoy. The brand presents an ideal fit with the active lifestyle of modern young consumers who are not traditional wine drinkers but are interested in new high-quality products. At a time when the number of one-person households is continuously increasing, beverage cans represent the optimum „single serve“ packaging choice, allowing people to enjoy their favorite wines anywhere and anytime – at the beach with friends, on a picnic in the park or with a fine meal at home.
And who said good wine has to come in a bottle with a cork?
