Star Wars may the daddy of
all sci-fi films, but TV’s Star Trek is the granddaddy of anyplace where anyone
wishes to boldly go. It’s one thing to create a whole other world, rather
universe, of unique characters and places, and it’s another to actually have a
wine here on planet earth inspired by such far off distant galaxies. The
Klingon Bloodwine (literally “tlhlngan ‘Iw Hlq”) has been transported to earth
for us mere mortals. A blend of Malbec, Syrah and Petit Verdot without a hint
of blood, this is a mild wine, fun like Spock (OK, well, maybe not fun exactly) but not as nerdy and
implacable as many Klingons. Bright red fruit like plum, black cherry and
boysenberry with a boost of acidity and a touch of oak treatment makes this the
perfect wine for May 4th, or any such celebratory millennia ocasion. Grab
your light saber, cuddle with your Tribble, sit next to your favorite AI, and
enjoy the bounty of the universe. http://www.vinport.com/startrek/klingon-bloodwine
