The new Star Trek wines from Viansa Winery in Sonoma, California are the perfect addition to any Star Trek viewing party or even a father's day gift for the Star Trek-loving Dad. Each wine features a unique label designed by artist Juan Ortiz that pays homage to three of the most famous Star Trek episodes: 'The Trouble with Tribbles,' 'Mirror Mirror' and 'The City on the Edge of Forever.'
The Star Trek wines are a subtle blending of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Sangiovese, Tempranillo, Dolcetto and Tinta Cao. While they're luxurious and limited edition, they're still made available to the average trekkie. Wine and Star Trek fans can pick up a case or individual bottles and include them at their next Star Trek-themed party or save the bottle to show off to other Star Trek fans who will be green with envy.
