Who owns Little Penguin?

[bookluvingbabe]

Anyone know if Mark Burnett or INXS has an interest in Little Penguin wines? It keep showing up on Rock Star: INXS.

Personal interest?

Product placement?

Thanks!

The label is owned by Southcorp, "the largest Australian-owned wine producer and one of the top five wine companies in the world." Don't know about a Mark Burnett or INXS connection but either (or both!) of your hypotheses seems like a good bet.

And the cynic in me also wouldn't rule out paid-for product placement.

almost a certainty. note that on "Hell's Kitchen," rampant product-placer Shafer even had the would-be cooks using $40 merlot as cooking wine. while the San Pellegrino water labels on the tables were blurred out. could tell who was forking up dough for that one.
