French Rocker Puts His Name To Wine

I'll admit I've never heard of Johnny Hallyday but in our continuing coverage of wine by famous people, I figured I'd add his wine to our evergrowing list. According to Decanter, the 62-year-old French rocker is now producing a Coteaux du Languedoc wine, produced in the south of France. Hallyday Wines Diffusion will be producing 50,000 bottles%uFFFD with a label that identifies the wine as being discovered by Johnny Hallyday. Will Hallyday's fame in France be enough to boost the opinion of the much-maligned Languedoc wine? Personally, I think I'd rather drink Depardieu.
