Accolade Wines is investing £1m in an on-pack Christmas campaign across its Echo Falls, Hardys, Mud House, Jam Shed, and Stone‘s Ginger brands under the strapline: ‘It’s treating season’.

Accolade is also supplying branded bags to retailers appeal to the 22% of consumers who buy wine as a gift over the Christmas period.

Echo Falls will launch an on-pack promotion, giving away free disco ball key rings with ProsEcho Falls, Echo Falls Summer Berries Vodka and Echo Falls Pink Gin. Later in the season, additional Echo Falls varieties and Fruit Frusions will give customers the chance to win a full-sized disco ball.
