Brangelina's Pink Holy Water Sells Out

It took all the members of Brangie child army nearly 5 months to harvest enough virgin blood and collect enough of Jennifer Aniston's tears to make 6,000 bottles of the Brangelina pank wine and it took only 5 hours for that crap to sell out.

Brad Pitt and Angie Jolie's Miraval Rose, made from grapes from the vineyard on their estate in France, went on sale online yesterday morning and by the afternoon, it was all gone. A rep for the Perrin family, the winemakers who actually made the wine, told People that all six-bottle cases (which went for $139 a case) are gone. But if you didn't get to buy a case, don't worry, you'll still get a chance to taste Brangelina's pank wine (which probably tastes like James Haven's saliva and goat sweat), because it goes on sale to restaurants and wholesalers later this month.

You're probably assuming that the Brangeloonies bought up every last case, because they figured that Brad Pitt made a regular habit out of stumbling into the vineyard to take a piss on the grapes after getting really, really stoned. (Side note: the label on the Brangelina wine should also read, "infused with Pitt piss.") But I don't think the Brangeloonies bought up all the bottles. I mean, the wine went on sale online at 9am and was sold out by 2pm. The computer lab in every Brangelooney ward at every mental hospital doesn't open until 3pm, so it couldn't have been them. It was obviously Jennifer Aniston. She's going to use the Brangelina wine to fill the Porta Potties at her wedding.

I know it's an unpopular opinion but I liked Sonoma better than Napa. Possibly we just picked better wineries in Sonoma but I also had a better time there.

Sonoma's the bomb! No reason to go to crowded, spendy Napa. And Sonoma gets better the more you drive north. Check out Le Vin organic winery in Cloverdale. (Link: http://www.levinvineyards.com/)

My fave ever, anywhere, is still Preston in Dry Creek. (Link: https://www.prestonvineyards.com/)

That said, I'd drink that shit up if someone gave it to me for free. I love sweet, pink wine. Call me klassy. The Brange is smart for picking something that's hard to get wrong.

$136 for a six bottle case is fairly cheap, it would have been a smart move to buy some and then resell the bottles at a markup.

I am sure it tastes great, I love rose.

I have this theory that people are religious for the same reason they engage in celebrity worship: we just enjoy hero worship. Not that celebs are heroes but it seems like humans cannot just live and exist and get by without honoring, revering, admiring, worshipping, placing on a pedestal, bowing down before and imitating someone - Jesus or Brangelina. Dalai Lama, Pope, the Judge, Mr. President, Steven Spielberg, Justin Bieber, Muhammed - you name it. We always have to look up to someone - even if they are not deserving of it and even if those requirements to look up to them are arbitrary (i.e. there is no reason to worship a celebrity. They are just making movies, they arent curing cancer).

When I see people being called "extraoerdinary hisotic figuers" - one example that comes to mind is Neil Armstrong, I wonder why. I mean ok, Armstrong, as part of his job, got into a rocket and was shot to the moon. But he isnt the one making the rocket, he didnt to the leg work to make the launch happen and that he was picked was more a function of rank - that he had to earn like anyone else - and standing not because he in any way contributed intellectually to space exploration. similarly,when they landed it waspure chance that he got to first walk on the moon. I mean they had to walk on it anyway as part of their job. It was not like he did something that no one else could have done which allowed to walk on the moon.

So when i see people call him great, amazing and important person I really question how much of that was Armstrong just doing something extraordinary based on his own decisions and now much of it was just shit he had to do as part of the job; a routine that was different and which landed him the reputation. If they had picked Jim Jones in his place, we would now all worship Jim Jones. Point being: it is arbitrary and when people are worshiped it is rarely because there is something intrinsically extraordinary about them. A lot of it is just luck and circumstance.

Im ranting but yeah the point is that people "admire" Brangelina and wanna imitate them for the same reason we make jesus our messiah and create a god and call Armstrong an extraordinary human being for doing things that were essentially assigned to him and which he was ordered to do.

I think the bottle is very well designed, looks all expensive and shit. I don't think I would want to buy their wine though, otherwise I have no problem with celeb products (my favourite perfume is that blue bottle (Midnight something?) by Britney......).

I don't know much about wine at ALL. My favourite wine is a red wine from Chile called La Casita though :). It's 7 euros for a bottle but it's DELISH!

Couldn't pay me to drink this wine. I despise this couple immensely and will never support what they do.

MK you know you were the first on on line to buy this. It looks soo good. When I see rose wine I anticipate spring/summer nights....

Jolie Pitt are aiming at giving the Coppolas a run for their money in the vineyard biz.

I ate at one of Sammy Hagar's restaurants in Vegas and it was yummy, he seems like he is passionate and knowledgeable about his tequila brand. I love love love Newman's chocolate peanut butter cups. I ate them every day when I was pregnant. Stuffed them into my mouth ravenously like an addict. Weird, now I just look at them and laugh, can't eat them anymore.

HAHA, Whamo! I always knew "What's the word? Thunderbird! What's the price? Fifty twice! (or What's the fee? A dollar three!).

Perrin makes ok table wine.

Roses have improved a lot since the old days of Lancer's and Mateus.
Southern France and northern Spain have very good rose, made mostly from Grenache grapes. They are m ore complex and have higher alcohol content than white zinfandels.

Lovely pale pink, clear color. The nose is intense, with delicate raspberry and red fruits-of-the-forest flavors. Shows finesse and complexity on a long, refreshing finish.

You know what's a superb "celebrity" wine? Fred MacMurray (the wise, bemused dad on "My Three Sons"), from Dry Creek, Sonoma. He took his Double Indemnity and TV money and started a really good cattle ranch and vineyard, sometime in the 1940s. (Gallo took over at some point--they always do--but kept up the quality.)

Why do wine bottles have that pushed up bottom like that? Is there a special reason or is it so you get less wine than you actually paid for?

It's sold by volume, but the indent does make the bottle look bigger and rounder. I think it started with aged reds, so the sediment collects on the bottom. These rosés will be swilled young, so not sure why the bottles need the indent, other than appearance and ease of handling.

as MJT said, hope you get to visit his vineyard or order direct! i've only had grocery store Coppola -- i like the Rosso, it's a good basic, non-fancee' red for purposes like swilling while talking shit on dlisted

on the wine note, BevMo is currently having one of its 5 cent sales...

$139 for six bottles? That's some fine wine all right
------------------------------------------------
Aren't there 12 bottles in a case? I heard the cost was $12/bottle and that price included shipping.

I don't drink alcohol but I think that bottle is pretty so I would buy one and put it on a shelf and look at it.

Submitted by Foxxy Brown on Fri, 03/08/2013 - 11:45am.
It sounds like Coppola is serious, so I'd totally try it.

I dunno if I'd reject it BECAUSE it had a celebrity, if it was a quality product. But I hate when celebrities come out with fashion lines/food/wine/novels etc, never actually being involved or having any passion except for the money it brings them. That fucking burns.
