Thanks to @foodists for the heads up.  I am sure many of you are horrified, but I have to admit that I am a die-hard DC fan and the discovery that AC/DC  produced a wine label gets me pretty revved up.  I find the hilarity of all just too much not to notice.

After all, why should the Rolling Stones have all the fun?  They are using Okanagan Ice Wine to produce “Sympathy for the Devil“?

AC/DC stuck to their Aussie roots and entered into a partnership with New South Wales-based winery Warburn Estate to release the wine collection.  We’ll just have to hope it makes it into our province some time soon!

Catch the names –  Back In Black Shiraz, Highway To Hell Cabernet Sauvignon and You Shook Me All Night Long Moscato.  So hilarious that I’d take several cases.  It’s just too bad that I no longer attend those end of Lakeshore Kelowna bush parties where the biggest head banger would show up with his painted van and blast Hell’s Bells over and over.  I’d fit right in now, with my AC/DC Moscato.  Give me a “hell ya” if you’ve banged your head more than a few times after a swig or two of JD.  Moscato would be so much more refreshing on those hot summer nights.

While I really will have to taste before giving any further approval, there is hope as the grapes have been sourced from the Barossa and Coonawarra regions, regions known for some great wine growing.

KISS, Motorhead and Whitesnake have also started their own labels.

LET THERE BE ROCK!  And this time when I am sitting around the fire pit, let there be some good wine too.
