Is The World Ready For Martha Stewart Wine?
Is the world ready for Martha Stewart-themed wine?
Oh, apparently. Martha will be slapping her name onto some Gallo wine, according to the Wall Street Journal.
Although Ernest & Julio will be producing the wine, the Gallo name won’t be on the label.
From the WSJ:
Dubbed Martha Stewart Vintage, the $15-a-bottle wine — in chardonnay, cabernet sauvignon and merlot — will be produced and distributed by closely held E.&J. Gallo Winery, of Modesto, Calif., and made from grapes grown primarily in Sonoma County, Calif., these people said. A rosé version is under consideration for future releases in the line.
For some reason this makes us laugh.
