Benchmark Drinks to manage Graham Norton wines

Invivo has appointed drinks distribution firm Benchmark to manage sales of Graham Norton’s wine brand in the UK and Ireland.

Graham Norton teamed up with New Zealand wine producers Invivo to launch the brand in 2014, and is personally involved in selecting the blend from tank samples alongside Invivo’s founders and winemakers, Tim Lightbourne and Rob Cameron, who say their wines are made from “grapes, time and two maxed out credit cards.”

The range includes Sauvignon Blanc, Rosé, Shiraz and soon to be released Prosecco. Each year the Invivo team meet with Graham to choose the blend and release a video from the session.
