Zapp enlists England and Chelsea legend Fran Kirby for wine, World Cup competition
Rapid delivery firm, Zapp, has launched a collection of vintage red wines from 1966, English football’s ‘golden year’, aka, the only time we’ve won the World Cup.
Just a few bottles remain in the world and fans will have a chance to win one from Friday, 25th November, when England play their second group match against USA.
The competition will then run for the duration that England are in the tournament, or lift the trophy.
The Taste of Success Collection includes a collectors’ item from Burgundy, the Richebourg 1966 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, worth nearly £7,000.
As well as Château Lascombes and Château Rauzan Segla, both from Margaux, Bordeaux, and each worth £399.99. The Château Lascombes is also available to buy through Zapp’s app during the tournament.
England and Chelsea player Fran Kirby, who played a major role in the Lionesses Euro 2022 triumph in July and is fronting the Zapp campaign, says: “I’ve experienced success first hand and it’s a wonderful thing to savour. Zapp’s rare ‘66 collection will give fans an opportunity to taste success for themselves too.”
“The women brought it home after 56 years of pain, so let’s see if the guys can do the same and finally get their own taste of success. 2022 has already been a massive year for English football, but let's take it one step further and make it the most successful ever.”
Steve O’Hear, SVP of Strategy at Zapp, says “We celebrate the passion that goes into football and the way sport brings people together, so we are thrilled to join forces with Fran to offer customers a taste of success.”
“A football winter like this one doesn't come around often - and whether it’s pre-match snacks, half time refreshments or a glass of ‘66 at the final whistle, Zapp will be delivering for football fans throughout.”
The competition will be available to all Zapp customers spending £19.66 or above, who will be given an option to add the ‘Taste of Success’ item to their basket. Winners will get the bottle delivered in a premium, Zapp designed box and will be contacted by Zapp to organise delivery at a time that suits them.
There is a standard delivery fee of £2.99 per order and, for orders over £30, said fee is waived.
