About this deal

The brand will be making an eye-catching arrival, during Brighton Pride Parade that has to be seen to be believed. A 6 metre Squealing Pig Pride Blimp with fly across the south coast skyline to demonstrate the brand’s passion to support the LGBTQIA+ community. A portfolio of six wines, sourced from regions across the Old and New World, Squealing Pig will include wines from Australia, New Zealand, France, Argentina and Italy all under one brand. Squealing Pig is a range of wines that originated in New Zealand and has spread first to Australia and then to Europe. All the range is produced under the supervision of top New Zealand winemaker Spring Timlin, who for many years was the chief winemaker at Matua. A new range of multi-country of origin wines has been released by Treasury Wine Estates into the UK market — Squealing Pig.

The grape Primitivo is synonymous with Southern Italy, primarily Sicily but makes equally good wines as here in the "heel" of Italy, Puglia. When taken to the USA, the name was changed to Zinfandel, and this wine is a match for any mid-priced Californian Red Zinfandel. This wine is very similar to the Primitivo we listed in 2020 from the defunct "Jamie's Italian" chain.

Squealing Pig is a tale about a pig who wanted more from life than just his pig pen. Keen on wine without the super dry boar-ing bits, he went on an adventure to Marlborough and Central Otago seeking out wines with a difference. We make wine - so do lots of people. Actually, we make smokin' hot moreish Sauvignon Blanc, Malbec, Primitivo and more. We just make sure we have more fun than everyone else. Relax, it's just wine! The winery advises a potential cellaring of up to 3 years, but we tried it and it is still drinking superbly well. One of the best reds we have tried in ages.

The ideal wine for all Italian tomato-based dishes and will match any red meat dish from burgers to venison. The Squealing Pig brand was created in 2010. In Australia, it is the #1 value and #2 volume growth brand in the total bottled wine category, with the Sauvignon Blanc the #2 wine (by value) and the #1 contributor to growth in the category.RICH, POWERFUL RED. This 2022 is from Angelo Maci, a hero in the region for standing up to the big guns and championing the small grower. It's not only growers he saves, but the ancient traditions that make these wines so rich, characterful and super-charged. Ben Blake, Head of Marketing EMEA at Treasury Wine Estates, adds; “Squealing Pig was born to give wine drinkers something new, fun and exciting. The chance to easily explore different wine varietals from different countries all under one trusted brand.
