Famous musicians love wine too, and a few love it so much they make their own, usually with an established winemaker or wine family. Here are five musician-owned wine labels you can buy on Wine.com, from John Legend's LVE to Jon Bon Jovi's Hampton Water rose.
The LVE Cabernet Sauvignon is the red in John Legend's line, made through his partnership with French vintner Jean-Charles Boisset.
2. Jon Bon Jovi: Hampton Water
With his son, Jesse Bongiovi, and winemaker Gérard Bertrand, Jon Bon Jovi launched Hampton Water in 2017 to capture the spirit shared between the Hamptons and the South of France. Start with the classic rose, or try the sparkling Bubbly Rose.
Sting has captured some of his ballads in the form of Tuscan wine. His winery, Il Palagio, makes wines named after his songs, including Roxanne and When We Dance.
Mary J. Blige launched a line of Italian wines with the Fantinel family in Friuli Venezia Giulia. Aptly named Sun Goddess, the wines reflect the artist, the vineyards and the vintner.
Zac Brown created Z. Alexander Brown in collaboration with Napa Valley winemaker John Killebrew to highlight the quality of California's best growing regions.
Wine.com currently carries wines from John Legend (LVE), Jon Bon Jovi (Hampton Water), Sting (Il Palagio), Mary J. Blige (Sun Goddess) and Zac Brown (Z. Alexander Brown).
