Impressive 33% growth for Dark Horse wine

Premium US wine brand has registered an impressive 33 percent annual growth, riding on the huge demand for its Malbec variant.

The brand said its other variants have also performed well, with its best-selling Dark Horse Cabernet Sauvignon and Dark Horse Chardonnay contributing significantly to the growth in their respective categories. Dark Horse Chardonnay has seen an increase of 24 percent by value.

Nielsen data shows that 58 percent of Dark Horse growth is incremental to the still wine category.
