Lemmy-Approved… Motörhead Has A Wine Now
This Valentine’s Day, say it with Motörhead wine. Inspired by the British hard rock band, the Lemmy-approved Shiraz has a very fruity aroma with flavours of vanilla, blackberries, plums, eucalyptus and liquorice. Throw some back whilst listening to Ace of Spades on loop — or would that be Overkill?

Much like the medium itself, these wine paintings by artist Elisabetta Rogai evolve over time. After a lot of trial and error, Rogai uses a water and flour mixture in the wine that she paints with, to help control the painting’s aging process. The result are portraits that begin with tones of purples and rubies, until they eventually fade into beautiful hues of orange and brown.

Few things go together better than good chocolate and red wine. ChocoVine realizes this, and tries to save you the burden of two separate products. Designed to be an indulgent alternative to Bailey’s Irish Cream, ChocoVine blends fine red wine and rich dark chocolate, with the finest Dutch cream.
And if you’re wondering how two great things coming together can be a bad thing — remember that peanut butter and jelly are available in the same package too.

Although I’m not really sure there’s any good reason to deliberately make your wine inaccessible — unless you live with a raging alcoholic — the Don’t Break The Bottle Wine Puzzle is here to help. The puzzle locks the precious wine inside, leaving the potential drinker to solve it in order to get the goods. Use it at your next dinner party, to ensure that nobody will ever come back.
