Want to know what’s trending in the vino world right now?

Welcome to our ‘Wine of the Week’ series, where we highlight particular wines on our radar and delicious reasons why you should try them.

Are you looking for more ways to wine your way through Summer? Australia’s little Pig just got BIG!

Set to be the talk of the town this Summer, Australia’s favourite Pig is launching in its biggest format yet – the Squealing Pig Bagnum.

This new 1.5L lightweight, easy-to-carry, ‘magnum in a bag’ is the perfect gateway into Spring and Summer entertaining, offering convenience that doesn’t compromise on the quality of the wine. Not one, but two, portable Pig varietals will be hitting the shelves in a Bagnum format just in time for the warmer months.

The Squealing Pig Sauvignon Blanc is packed with passionfruit and herbaceous aromas on the nose, with a crisp, citrus finish on the palate; while the Squealing Pig Pinot Gris combines the aromas of ripe stone fruits, ginger and juicy ripe pear with a hint of sweetness.

With twice the number of servings of a standard bottle of wine, these new-look portable wine bags are the ultimate entertainer’s choice of vino.

But if you are a little conscious pig who is looking for portion control, you can guarantee your drop is sealed with freshness so you can enjoy it responsibly for up to 30 days after opening!

In addition, Wolf Blass, one of Australia’s most iconic and award-winning wine brands, will also introduce this exciting new format into its portfolio. The tried and trusted brand has produced three varietals in a 1.5L form, including Wolf Blass Chardonnay, Wolf Blass Shiraz Cabernet and Wolf Blass Cabernet Sauvignon.

Each wine features fruit-driven flavours and soft, approachable palates that also provide consistent quality drinking and excellent value. For those environmentally conscious consumers, you can rest assured that each eye-catching Bagnum is a more sustainable choice, with seven times lower carbon emissions than a traditional 750mL glass bottle.

It's versatile packaging also means you can throw it in the esky, share it over a picnic, or grab it on the go with ease!

Bagnums are available now exclusively to Dan Murphy’s and BWS.
