Music and wine collectors take note. After the success of the AC/DC wine, Australian wine producer Warburn Estate has teamed up with Dan Murphy’s to bring The Rolling Stones 50th Anniversary Wine.
The Rolling Stones 50th Anniversary McLaren Vale Shiraz 2012 celebrates 50 years of the iconic rock and roll band. The wine is with ripefruit flavours, a hint of chocolate and fine tannins that give it structure and length. It can be enjoyed now, cellared, or kept as a collector’s item.
The Rolling Stones are set to visit Australia from 19 March 2014. You can find The Rolling Stones 50th Anniversary Wine at Dan Murphy’s for $15.70 per bottle or $14.90 per bottle in half a dozen.
