Christmas is coming early this year according to the Hallmark Channel!
The network is teaming up with Wines That Rock to launch Hallmark Channel Wines, a set of holiday-themed wines inspired by many of the network’s popular Christmas films.
The soon-to-be-released wines come in two delicious flavors: Jingle, “a rich, full-bodied premium Cabernet Sauvignon with aromas of cherry, dark chocolate, and a hint of holiday spice;” and Joy, “a special crisp Sauvignon Blanc featuring notes of tropical fruits, white peach, and ripe pineapple.”
The wines can be purchased in a variety of sets as a 2-pack, 4-pack, 6-pack, or a case of 12, but there will be limited quantities available. The wines are set to ship in October which means they will arrive just in time for the launch of the network’s annual “Countdown to Christmas” marathon of original Hallmark movies that begins in late October and runs through the new year.
Danielle Mullin, SVP of Marketing, shared in a company press release, “Over the last ten years, ‘Countdown to Christmas’ has evolved into something more than a collection of holiday movies, it has become a seasonal lifestyle experience.”
“Featuring two exclusive varietals that can be found nowhere else, our Hallmark Channel Wines collection is an exciting new extension of our brand and is designed to enhance our viewers’ enjoyment of the holidays — whether as an accompaniment to our signature movies, an offering at family gatherings, or a unique gift for Hallmark Channel fans.”
Wines That Rock’s winemaker Andrew Nelson shared similar sentiments, “Hallmark Channel has inspired our winemaking team to create a delicious holiday-themed collection that embodies Hallmark Channel’s passion for celebration. We thoroughly enjoyed bringing these wines to life. This unique Hallmark Channel Wine Collection really delivers on taste, value and most importantly – some holiday cheer.”
You can currently preorder the wines on the Hallmark Channel website.
