Media Release:<\/span><\/p>\n

This weekend\u2019s Sydney Cellar Door will see the launch of \u2018Ask for it\u2019, a new NSW Wine marketing initiative. \u2018Ask For It\u2019 is a new campaign designed to continue the momentum that has been created since 2008 when the NSW Wine Strategy was launched. The strategy is designed to highlight the quality and diversity of NSW wines and to encourage NSW residents to become as fiercely parochial about their State\u2019s wine as the other wine producing States.<\/p>\n

The strategy has been incredibly successful to date and has seen on-premise sales of bottled NSW wine within NSW increase from $52.3M in 2007 to $87.7M in 2011, an increase of over 60%. <\/p>\n

Representation of NSW wines on NSW restaurant wine lists has also improved, with a recent report showing a 22% increase between 2010 and 2011.* <\/p>\n

Whilst a great start, this is not the time to rest on past successes so \u2018Ask For It\u2019 is here to remind consumers that the power is with them. If they can\u2019t see a NSW wine on a bottle shop shelf or on a wine list then they should ask for it. Whether that be in person or via the many social networking platforms now available, ask for it.<\/p>\n

The launch of \u2018Ask For It\u2019 encourages NSW wine lovers to make their desire to drink local wines known to their favourite restaurants, wine bars and bottle shops, helping lift sales of NSW wine to the next level. Importantly, this initiate will support the many small, family owned vineyards who are competing with large corporations from across the globe, and in turn offer consumers even more value and choice.<\/p>\n

Look out for\u2026<\/p>\n
