(Harpers) - Accolade Wines is bringing the Geyser Peak range of commercial and premium Californian wines to the UK this summer, starting with varietals specially blended for the UK consumer. The move signals Geyser Peak's return to the UK after a number of years and gives Accolade a premium quality Californian wine brand it can distribute across the off-trade at all the key price points. The move was announced on the opening day of Prowein which runs in Dusseldorf between March 24 and March 26, and follows Accolade's purchase of Geyser Peak in June last year.

Paul Schaafsma, Accolade's UK and European head, said Prowein was an ideal opportunity to introduce the Geyser Peak range to all the key European and international buyers as well as hold further talks with interested UK parties.
