Pernod Ricard is celebrating 40 successful years for Jacob’s Creek with a campaign to honour the wine brand’s haul of more than 7,000 awards and medals from around the world.
A special new cigar band proclaiming Jacob’s Creek’s position as ‘Winner of over 7,000 Awards’ will take pride of place on the bottle necks of the brand’s Shiraz, Chardonnay and Merlot offerings from this month.
Set to feature on more than two million bottles in total, the campaign is also being supported with nationwide print and poster advertising in the run up to the all-important Christmas selling period.
“Reinforcing the brand’s quality message through the many awards and medals that Jacob’s Creek has won all around the globe will drive interest in our core Classic range, as well as creating even greater standout on shelf,” said Toni Ingram, head of marketing wine & champagne at Pernod Ricard UK.
“Our research shows that awards are a strong motivation in the final purchasing decision at the wine fixture, so there is now an even more compelling reason for retailers to stock Jacob’s Creek.”
