Long Trout Winery has quite a few eccentric labels. Some of them are eccentric due to the unusual blend of ingredients. But quite a few of them are eccentric in referring to the panoply of human sexual organs.
Featured above are the trusty Swollen Member, the good old German Helmet, and Old One Eye. The latter is made with tomatoes, raisins, onions, sweet peppers, celery, string beans, carrots, hot peppers, parsley, horseradish, garlic and soy sauce. Would you drink it? Long Trout is in Auburn, Pennsylvania. Before we depart the topic of Long Trout and their risque labels we’d be derelict if we did not mention this label about everyone’s favorite garden implement.

Book, Movie, Wine (or, Eat, Pray, Love & Drink)
First it was a major book. Then “A Major Motion Picture.” Now, “Eat, Pray, Love” is an Italian wine coming to a store near you. If the wine sells, too, who knows what will be next. The Wii game? EPL analgesics? I also wonder to what extent the success of this franchise is due to the power of good design and font choices; this would just not be the same in Times New Roman.
These wines, referring to the Elizabeth Gilbert book, are imported by Chateau Diana of Healdsburg, California.
