[yellow tail] is hopping into the RTD paddock, launching two flavours of ready-to-drink sparkling wine cocktails, featuring a resealable plastic bottle cap by Zork.

The sparkling cocktails are available in 750ml bottles in two flavours: Wild Peach Bellini and Blood Orange Mimosa. 

[yellow tail] global marketing manager Anna Czarnocka said the sparkling wine, ready-to-drink and spirits categories were all in growth globally, driven by millennials and younger drinkers seeking flavour and convenience.

“The ready-to-drink segment is booming in Australia – it’s the fastest-growing category in the alcoholic beverage industry globally. Coupled with the rising cost of living, we are seeing more consumers increasingly focusing on products that offer accessibility, convenience and value – without compromising on taste,” said Czarnocka.

“[yellow tail] Sparkling Cocktails are ready-to-drink, and designed to be enjoyed anytime, and with the Zork technology, the cocktails can be resealed to enjoy later,” said Czarnocka.

[yellow tail] Sparkling Cocktails are available at Dan Murphy’s and BWS nationally at RRP $18.00 (750ml bottle).

Packaging News

Following the voluntary administration of Recycling Plastics Australia and confirmation that no Commonwealth packaging scheme will be introduced this term, voices from across the packaging and recycling value chain have delivered a blunt assessment of what is at stake.

Pact Group CEO and managing director Sanjay Dayal has advised the board that he intends to leave the company, with an executive search now under way for his successor.

With a Commonwealth packaging scheme ruled out this term, pressure is building ahead of the 18 September Environment Ministers Meeting, as industry, recyclers and environmental groups demand clarity on what meaningful national reform can still be delivered – and when.
