Brewer Molson Coors
The group, which supplies in excess of 700 wines from more than 15 countries -Â is offering its independent hotel, pub, club and restaurant customers a free bottle of still or sparkling Chapel Down wine for every 11 they buy during the month of May.
National Wine Month was conceived as a partnership between suppliers and the trade to educate consumers about wine and encourage them to discover new varieties.
It is co-ordinated by the Wine & Spirit Education Trust, which is hosting a âMake Time For Wineâ consumer roadshow with bespoke tastings throughout May.
Downloadable banners and posters to publicise activities are available from the National Wine Month website, while the www.maketimeforwine.org website keeps consumers informed of tastings and education sessions around the country.
The month coincides with the London International Wine Fair (17-19 May) and overlaps English Wine Week (28 May â" 5 June).
