4. Funny Wine Brand Names
As always, wine brands too have certain stupid names, which are sometimes both bizarre and offensive. ‘Fat Bastard’ is one of such names of a French wine produced and distributed by the British. An Australian brand is named ‘Bitch’ and what interests more is that the lucky drinker can reader the name printed 77 times on the back of the bottle. (Oops), yes the brand is named (Oops) in parenthesis. The grape type was mislabeled for years on the original bottle and then the maker decided to call it (Oops). La Vin de Merde (Wine of Shit), the Elephant on a Tight Rope brand, and the delicious Frog’s Piss are some of the bizarre names of wine brands.
