Alice White Making A Big Splash In Hollywood

Top-selling Australian Wine Brand Costars in Blockbuster Movie, Mingles with Celebrities at 2005 People's Choice Awards

Concord, CA. (January 11, 2005) — Move over Nicole, watch out Russell…Alice White – the hottest new star from Down Under – has taken Hollywood by storm. The top-selling Australian wine brand that has always been a darling of critics – wine critics that is – was last seen hitting it big in Tinseltown.

In December 2004, Alice White wines were featured in “Meet the Fockers,” the blockbuster sequel to the $330 million box office smash “Meet the Parents.” Exuding star quality rarely seen in one so young, Alice White plays a stylish and approachable Australian wine and shines alongside seasoned costars Robert De Niro and Ben Stiller.

This month, Alice White hosted the wine bar inside the Celebrity Lounge at the 31 st People's Choice Award Show in Pasadena, California, once again rubbing elbows with the who's who of Hollywood as they enjoyed the approachable, fruit-forward style of this hot Australia import. Celebrities, producers and film industry bigwigs sampled Alice White wines in the lounge and received two bottles of Alice White's award-winning wines, and a custom wine glass, courtesy of Australia's newest star.

When asked about the brand's newly heightened celebrity status, Tim Peters, Brand Manager for Alice White replied simply: "Alice White came to this country with nothing more than a bold label, world-class wine and a dream. Look at her now."

Alice White offers critically acclaimed and consistent "best-buy" choices in seven popular Australian varietals: Chardonnay, Shiraz, Merlot, Cabernet-Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon and Semillon-Chardonnay and Lexia.
