Wines That Rock: Could I get you another glass of Dark Side of the Moon Cabernet Sauvignon?
Or perhaps some Forty Licks Merlot? I have no idea if winemaker Mark Beaman and the Mendocino Wine Co. get swell juice outta their grapes, but I gotta say, this is a pretty savvy product launch. Can't think of a gift to bring to your 58-year-old boss's holiday party? How about Woodstock Chardonnay ($17 bottle)? It'll have him thinking you're both hip and considerate. Same goes with the Rolling Stones and Pink Floyd-labeled vino. (The Stones' business managers are behind this too; no word on whether Mick and Keith are stomping fruit.) And who cares if it tastes like crap! No one is actually going to open this wine. This is the sorta thing that sits on living-room shelves and delights the lookee-loos. And if someone does manage to open your bottle of Dark Side, it'll be at, like, 3 a.m. when all the other wine is gone and the party's still raging. For more on Wines That Rock, DRINK UP RIGHT HERE.
