This limited edition cuvée of Red Red Wine was created through the partnership between Eminent Life and UB40 featuring Ali, Astro and Mickey, founding members of Britain‘s biggest reggae band who sold over 70 million records as they took their smooth yet rootsy musical blend to all corners of the globe. Produced from a subtle blend of two grape varieties, Merlot and Cabernet Franc, this cuvée represents a perfect expression of the two varieties used in Bordeaux.
