Used Automobile Parts Wine

Filed under: Wine

Fine wines usually feature exotic names, chateau this and domaine that. But in the tradition of less evocative names like Screaming Eagle, Don Sebastiani & Sons have announced a new luxury label with the quirky name of Used Automobile Parts. The Bordeaux-style wine, a blend of  Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petite Verdot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec sourced solely from Napa Valley vineyards will cost $50 per bottle and also comes in three packs for $150. The three packs will feature three different closures: screw cap, Zork, or the new German Vino-Seal. The bottles have lettering in 22K gold screen printed and fired onto each bottle.

The World's Most Expensive White Wine

Filed under: Wine

A record for the world's most expensive bottle of white wine has been set with a $90,000 1787 Sauternes from Château d'Yquem. Stephen Williams, Managing Director of Antique Wine Company said that the company has been "working for some time on this commission and the purchaser is a long standing customer of ours." The client is a U.S.-based wine collector and the wine was sold by a private collector in France. The bottle has been inspected and re-corked several times during the past century. The grapes were picked when George Washington became the first President of the U.S. and so the wine has value as a piece of history regardless over whether the wine itself has held up through time. Williams is taking no chances getting the wine to the client. He picked it up from France in his private plane and will fly it over to the U.S. to personally hand it to the new owner.
