Sogno Uno Wine

[johnder]

Interesting article floating around the net, apparently a former porn star Natalie Oliveros know in the industry as "Savanna Samson" decided to be a winemaker and her first wine Sogno Uno received a 91 rating from Robert Parker.

Here is one article

Initial suspicion in the wine world that Samson’s label was just a celebrity publicity stunt dissolved when Robert Parker, the American wine guru, rated her effort at 91 points out of 100 — denoting “an outstanding wine of exceptional complexity and character”.

Parker later insisted that he had not been swayed by the bottle’s label, which shows Samson wearing only a see-through negligee. When he met her at a pre-launch party last November, he said he was impressed with her “good palate”, even though her dress was “provocative”.

and another article

Difference – this is where Ms Samson is one up (or down) on those vanity bottlings - is that she is a classy, very classy American porn star. She is, in fact, a prize-winning porn star – and now her first wine, Sogno Uno (‘dream one’) 2004 has hit the wine stores in New York with the imprimatur of no less a grand judge than the emperor of wine himself, Robert M. Parker.
