Moscato, Rap Superstar in a Highball

Moscato d'Asti Cocktail in a Highball

What is Moscato? Sweet wine for sugar daddies if rapper Drake is to be believed. In Do It Now he raps: "Lobster and shrimp and a glass of moscato, for the girl who's a student and her friend whose a model." Hey! Serving alcohol to minors is illegal people even if it's a relatively low-alcohol wine (i.e. 5% vs. a typical 12% alcohol by volume wine).

Naked Wine Part Deux: The Oak Barrel Strikes Back

  Sometimes the "Dark Side" of wine is as threatening as a shrimp-sized Darth Vader. Is the oak barrel really the villain it's made out to be? Or is naked wine just another slick, new marketing tactic? Naked Wine Part Deux Cont'd

Anthony Weiner and the Wine Industry Get Naked

 
Whether it's personal or business marketing, it appears you need to get naked to get any attention these days. Sexting, sexy wine labels and sexy names all point to the growing need to bare it all to close the deal no matter what your selling. Sex sells, even in (or especially in) the wine industry. Just ask porn star Savanna Samson whose outrageously successful red wine Sogno Uno scored a 91 from Robert Parker and features a side view of her wearing only a see-through gown and high heels. Maybe porn star Ginger Lee can parlay her experience with Congressman Weiner into a wine label of her own. Stupid Bastard maybe (there's a Fat Bastard already afterall), wait that's not sexy. How about No Penetration, there's already a Penetration Cabernet Sauvignon by (you guessed it) Naked Winery. Weiner and Naked Wine

Mom may be a commoner, but she can at least drink like a princess for Mother's Day without it costing Dad and family a king's ransom. The night before her wedding to Prince William, Kate Middleton (now the Duchess of Cambridge) dined with close friends and family at the Goring Hotel in London’s Belgravia district. According to US Weekly, she chose the rather unpretentious Casa Lapostolle Sauvignon Blanc 2009 (costs about $50) to pair with her salmon blini starter, and entrée of steak Chateaubriand.
