The Straw Hat launches Provence-style rosé in the UK
What happened
The Straw Hat has added a Blush Rosé, named Mediterranean Style Rosé, to its range. This wine, which is made in Britain using imported Mediterranean grape juice, takes its style cues from Provence rosé. The new offering has a pale blush profile and an easy-drinking character, with a recommended retail price of £6.

Why it matters
The launch positions the wine as a more premium proposition within The Straw Hat's portfolio while keeping the price accessible. This move occurs as the rosé category allows retailers to encourage consumers to trade up through taste and presentation while maintaining approachable price points. The average price of French rosé in the UK off trade is £11.70.
