Would you like some wine with that bodice-ripper?
By J.T.
How many of you have ever sat at work, dreaming of a date with your book of the moment and a bottle of vino?
*raises both hands*
Well well well. My publisher, Harlequin, has decided to make a lovely marriage of these two wonderful things and has launched their own wine label.
Yes. Yes they did.
In a partnership with the northern Californian winery Vintage Wine Estastes, these Harlequin wines are available exclusively on Amazon. You've got your choice between a Chardonnay, a Cabernet Sauvignon, and a little red blend whose tasting notes read "strawberry jam, ripe blackberry, cherry cola and a nice kick of spicy black pepper." Uh, YUM.
And look at those labels—such a great throwback to vintage Harlequin covers, and sexy to boot. You should totally bring one of these $14.99 bottles to book club. You would be super popular.
We'll give you a full report once we've ordered and sampled these, but wanted to give you the heads up!
Don't deprive the people of what they want—the world needs to know about Harlequin Wine!
