Diesel Wine
What does designing luxury jeans have to do with wine-making? Probably nothing, but that hasn't stopped Renzo Rosso, the man behind Diesel Jeans from creating Diesel Farm, a producer of high-end wine. Limited bottles of Cabernet, Chardonnay, Merlot, and Pinot Noir are produced on a 2,500-acre farm in Marostica, Italy. While you may scoff at the idea of a fashion guy making wine, this isn't just a hobby for Rosso who grew up on a farm watching his parents make wine. So how does the wine taste? The New York Times commented that "the chardonnay is predictably big and fruity, but the reds are subtle and elegant". You are, however, allowed to scoff at the price as each bottle will set you back at least two bills. You can buy a bottle at fine restaurants in New York and London.
