The Pink Panther - now available as booze
Wine lovers will soon be able to sip a new Pink Panther rosé which features the famous cartoon character.
A winery in Bordeaux has joined forces with film studios MGM to create the vintage.
The 60 per cent Merlot and 40 per cent Cabernet blend is expected to appear on British supermarket shelves and off-licences in June.
But trade magazine The Grocer yesterday said the new line could fall foul of British marketing standards which advise against using images that could appeal to under-18s.
