The lady shown here has an unusual pair of careers: porn star and winemaker. Decanter reports that Savanna Samson, famous for her long career in the adult film industry, will be releasing a wine called Sono Uno (Dream One) in February. We have seen this sort of stunt casting when it comes to celeb wines before but what is intriguing is that the wine has already been given 91 points by Robert Parker and will be available in restaurants inNew York including the posh Restaurant Daniel. The new wine is a blend of 70% Cesanese, 20% Sangiovese and 10% Montepulciano and Samson did the tasting herself. The wine is expected to sell for $35-$40 and only 400 cases of the 2004 have been produced. There are plans to make a white Sono Due (Dream Two) and a champagne in the future.
