Indiana sugar-free wine goes to the Oscars
Here’s an offbeat little quasi-local connection to tonight’s Academy Awards: Chateau Thomas’ “Slender Wine” is going to the Oscars tonight.
Apparently, the sugar-free wine from the Greenfield, Indiana winery was “selected o be included in the 81st Annual Academy Awards Oscar Baskets,” according to the winery’s web site and to Associated Content.
Here’s how a post at Women & Wine described the sugar-free wine:
Ok, so the grapes may come from Napa, but this latest “gimmick wine” aimed at women will be promoted this weekend at the Oscar suites and in the celebrity goodie bags. …It’s been a while since there’s been such blatant marketing to women - White Lies as I recall was the last disaster.
Anyone tried this wine? Would you like to?
