Newman’s Own Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon Wines Will Be Released in March 2008
Newman’s Own has announced the introduction of two new premium wines—Newman’s Own 2006 California Chardonnay and Newman’s Own 2006 California Cabernet Sauvignon. In March of 2008, the wines will join ranks with Newman’s Own other distinctive products. It was only 25 years ago that Paul Newman bottled his first product—a salad dressing in old wine bottles with parchment labels. “We have come full circle. We are back to wine bottles but this time we are filling them with a wine that will complement my salad dressing and pasta sauce. Wine was the only thing missing at dinner time. Now the meal is complete…” says Paul Newman, founder of Newman’s Own. Since that humble start, the line of goods has grown dramatically and generated revenue to allow Paul Newman and the Newman’s Own Foundation to donate more than 200 million dollars to thousands of charities.
To realize his winemaking vision, Newman worked closely with the Rebel Wine Co., a collaboration of Three Thieves and Trinchero Family Estates, to create these new high-end California wines, which will have a suggested retail price of $16 per bottle. Both wines are made from hand-selected grapes from some of California’s premier coastal vineyards. Like all other Newman’s Own products, Paul Newman and the Newman’s Own Foundation donate all profits and royalties after taxes to educational and charitable purposes.
