Zero dosage: French Champagne sugar-free
French champagne pionier Ayala just introduced a sugar-free version of original French champagne. The new Ayala no-sugar brand is called Cuvée Rosé Nature and is a pink champagne with absolutely zero sugar. A standard bottle of French champagne runs around 530 calories, the latest low-calorie, low-sugar option from Ayala will be only around 390 calories. The bottle will sell for around $80 each.
The secret lays in the missing liquefied sugar, the so-called dosage, which is typically added to champagne before bottling to better balance the flavor. According to Ayala, a subsidiary to U.S. based Bollinger, the newest rosé is designed to especially appeal to women looking for low-calerie alternative.

Austria: … Pizza Mann bringt Deluxe Sortiment
Premium Pizzen, Moët&Chandon Champagner, Paris Hiltons Rich Prosecco und Antipasti – das ist das neue Deluxe Sortiment, das Österreichs größter Pizza Zustelldienst seit kurzem anbietet. „Es gibt auch bei Pizza ein Leben abseits von Capricciosa und Diavolo“, sagt Alexande Platzl, welcher das Trauner Familienunternehmen gemeinsam mit seinem Bruder Oliver leitet.
Die ovalen Deluxepizzen (u. a. mit Riesengarnelen, Büffel-Mozzarella oder Ruccola) werden in einem speziellen rechteckigen, platinfärbigen Pizzakarton ausgeliefert, „der sogar schon bei ebay ersteigert werden kann“, fügt Stefan Pühringer vom Pizza Mann Marketing hinzu. Die ganze Promotion wird durch die Kooperation mit Paris Hiltons Rich Prosecco bzw. Moët&Chandon Champagner unterstützt.
Das Premium Segment ist nach der Serviceoffensive im Jahr 2006 ein weiterer Schritt um sich im härter werdenden Konkurrenzkampf zu unterscheiden.
Österreichweit bestehen derzeit 24 Pizza Mann Franchisestandorte. Fügt man die zur Gruppe gehörenden 49 Schnitzelhaus Filialen dazu, ist die Pizza Mann Gruppe mit derzeit 73 Standorten Österreichs zweitgrößte Systemgastronomieplayer.

Hyundai Deluxe to take on Mercedes, BMW, Lexus
According to news wire service Emfis, South Korea’s largest car manufacturer Hyundai Motor will conquer the luxury car market with a new model called Hyundai Genesis. The latest status symbol a Hyundai? Seems like a ridiculous attempt, especially in the European and North American markets where Mercedes, BMW and Lexus have held the top spots in terms of prestige for years now. Hyundai simply does not have the image, design or technology to appeal to the Mercedes & Lexus clientel. Plus, the estimated street price for the LuxHyundai is below $35.000. No way a status symbol on wheels can be that cheap! Anyway, a concept study of Hyundai’s new top-of-the-line model Genesis has recently been shown at a car show in the U.S. and will be available later this year.
