New Yarra Burn Spritzes arrive on-shelf, ready to celebrate Australia’s long-awaited summer
Iconic Australian sparkling wine brand Yarra Burn has released its latest innovation to market with a collection of premium spritzes in a ready-to-drink can. The convenient and stylish Yarra Burn Spritzes are available in four delicious and refreshing styles: Prosecco Spritz, Rosé Spritz, Prosecco Spritz with Orange Bitters, and Cuvée Spritz.
Just in time for the warmer weather arriving Down Under, Yarra Burn Spritzes are ultra-convenient and perfectly sized to pop into picnic hampers or serve at hotly anticipated outdoor get-togethers. Yarra Burn Spritzers are ready to enjoy with friends – wherever you are and with no fuss.
Yarra Burn has been crafting elegant sparkling wine for over 45 years and the delicious new Spritzes are ideal for those looking to moderate alcohol consumption and still enjoy the perfect serve this summer. Yarra Burn Spritzes are lower in alcohol (at 9% ABV) than their existing traditional sparkling wines. The aluminium-made cans are 100% recyclable – offering drinking pleasure with less environmental impact.
The ready-to-drink category has surged in popularity globally and in Australia over the last few years, primarily driven by millennials. A general health and wellness shift is steering consumers to choose lower-ABV drinks to enjoy, and the portable, single-serve formats (including cans) have become more appealing for casual drinking occasions.
Accolade Wines Marketing Director, Jack Glover says, “The ready-to-drink segment is booming in Australia – it’s the fastest-growing category in the alcoholic beverage industry globally[1]. Not only are we seeing more consumers becoming more conscious around their alcohol consumption, but they are also increasingly focusing on products that offer accessibility, convenience and are available in eco-friendly formats[2].”
“Yarra Burn Spritzes offer premium bubbles in a stylish and slim can and are designed to be enjoyed anytime, anywhere with friends. With the year that was, there is no doubt there will be many Australians enjoying plenty of long overdue social gatherings in the sunshine this Summer. Light, flavoursome and refreshing, Yarra Burn Spritzes are the perfect accompaniment to any picnic or barbecue in the calendar.”
Yarra Burn Spritzes are available now in ready-to-drink cans at leading liquor stores nationally at $22 (RRP) for a 4-pack. For inspiration and ideas on how to Yarra Burn Spritz this summer, follow Yarra Burn Wines on Instagram @yarraburnwines.
