Outlander, the popular historical drama from Starz, has released a set of wines -- the 'Outlander Series Quartet' -- for fans who want a nice pairing with their evening viewings. The Outlander Series Quartet features four wines, each of which are based off of a different character from the series.
The wines have been released in a very limited run, with only 2,500 bottles of each label available. Those bottles can be purchased individually, or as a complete set with all four of the vintages.
The vintages in the Outlander Series Quartet range from 2014 to 2015. The 2015 Frank Randall is a Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2015 Claire Fraser a Pinot noir, the 2014 Jamie Fraser a red blend, and the nonvintage Claire Randall a vin blanc.
