ABSOLUT TUNE – a sparkling fusion of ABSOLUT VODKA and crisp white wine

ABSOLUT TUNE is the latest innovation from ABSOLUT VODKA combining crisp white wine and premium vodka. The unexpected blend brings together two elements: a fruit-forward Sauvignon Blanc from the world-renowned Marlborough region of New Zealand and ABSOLUT, the world’s most iconic vodka.

Designed to celebrate life’s greatest moments - ABSOLUT TUNE delivers the perfect blend of sparkle and spirit for any occasion, whether it is a night out, Sunday brunch or an unforgettable evening entertaining at home.

“Our consumers, as well as the ABSOLUT brand, are curious and always seeking new experiences and trends. With ABSOLUT TUNE we are taking the curiosity to a new level creating an industry changing product,” says Jonas Tåhlin, Vice President Global Marketing.

The bottle itself features a stylish white motif that tears away as if unzipped, thus revealing an ornate, golden glass bottle. The body encompasses the chic silhouette of champagne and the classic script of ABSOLUT. Once you pop the cork, a veritable taste awakening fills your

champagne flute with two flavors working together in perfect harmony.

 “ABSOLUT TUNE is a perfect complement to our ever-expanding portfolio and we will continue to be responsive in meeting our consumers’ demands of sophistication and cutting edge premium-ness”, says Tåhlin.

ABSOLUT TUNE is only available in the US market this fall.
