Skywalker Wine

by Christopher Kirkman · Published February 19, 2004 · Updated

Weird story out of Slashdot.

According to the San Francisco Chronicle, the minds behind Star Wars are going to do a little wine-ing. Bad pun, but true story. Grapes grown on 3 and a half acres of the Skywalker Ranch are shipped to Francis Ford Coppola’s private winery and processed. First and foremost out of the golden gates is a chardonay called Viandante del Cielo. Romantic italian for Voyager of the Heavens…or…wait for it… Skywalker.
