The rosy alcoholic drink accounted for a sixth of the market share (15.8 per cent) this year and grossed £7.7m in sales, a third more than its competitor, according to analysis by Nielsen.
Kylie Minogue, 54, said: “Celebrity wines can carry a stigma but I think we’ve sidestepped that through a shared pursuit of quality.
“It’s overwhelming that we’ve reached so many people with the wine portfolio, especially considering we launched it during lockdown.
