The kiwi cuvee certainly had an intersting effect, consumers immediately assumed it was Australian. .smarter consumers assumed it was from NZ, and really brilliant ones looked at the bottle and noticed the “product of france” at the bottom of the label.

Cuvée (or Cuvee on some English language labels) is a French term used on wine labels to denote wine of a specific blend or batch. The word originates from the French word cuve meaning "vat". A cuvée wine may be numbered, indicating that the winemaker assigned a unique number to that blend. The word cuvée may also be used in terms such as "vin de cuvée", "cuvée speciale", or "tête de cuvée" to indicate a first-press wine or a wine that the winemaker believes to be among their finest.
