Mario,

Depardieu owns (according to my secret source called google) Ch. Tign=E9
in the Anjou. 350,000 cabernet d'anjou et cabernet franc.

How about the pretty fair Chateau Dassault, owned by Serge Dassault of
airplane-making-fame? IIRC it's a St. Emilion. FWIW he declines to offer
a discount to employees of either Dassault Aviation or Dassault Systems...

And, along those lines, I recently saw an ad for Ernie Els wines from
Stellenbosch. Not a parody AFAIK... Keeping on the theme of golf,
the Callaway winery in Temecula was started by the Callaway of golf club
fame.

I am a member of the Beringer Wine Club and they recently advertised
"Montagia", a wine Joe Montana (Legendary SF 49ers Football Quarterback) had
some hand in their last newsletter; a cut and paste:

A Rare Collaboration Between Two Men Who Know The Meaning of Excellence.Ed
Sbragia and Joe Montana
For the 2000 Napa Valley Wine Auction, Beringer Winemaster Ed Sbragia and
legendary quarterback Joe Montana collaborated to create the first vintage
of "Montagia," a remarkable Cabernet Sauvignon blend that reflects the
unique and complementary styles of these two talented men . . .

.. . . The first bottling of Montagia, created from the stellar 1997 vintage,
consisted of one case and one 9 liter bottle, which was packaged (along with
Montagia sports paraphernalia and a dinner with Ed, Joe and Joe's wife
Jennifer at the Beringer Hudson House) as an auction item for the 2000 Napa
Valley Wine Auction.
I know it sounds a little out there, but I am not joking. In the 1999
vintage they blended enough wine to make 100 cases of "Montagia".

I'll take Typos for $50. ;-)
Or is "suppressed" a new wine related psychological condition? :-)

Just curious about the 'beyond-wine' credentials of these two men to make
them VIPs in the sense of the original question. I did a Google search and
see that both are influential in the field of home winemaking, but are they
just "normal folk" or corporate tycoons, or what? Making great wine is
enough to make someone a VIP for me, but are they in the broader sense as
well??

Damn, should have been using thought-check rather then spell-check!

Shouldn't that be "Here Here"? -- but I agree!

Jack Keller must be a VIP in the field to land on the cover if Jon
Iverson's winemaking book. In other fields, I'm sure his family would
consider him a VIP. I guess that would make all of us a VIP in one
camp or another. :-)

VIP often does not translate into being a monetary giant.

Nick Faldo has just released his first vintage of Faldo surprisingly enough.
Its not too bad really,
Greg Norman has given his name to a range of wines from Hardy's (?)
Sir Cliff Richard has a winery in Portugal, that supposedly is halfway
decent
Francis Ford Coppola has Niebaum-Coppola
Randy Lewis (Indy 500 driver) owns Lewis Cellars, Napa

Emeril Lagasse has his own brand of wine out, though I have never seen it on
the shelves, and he has shown the basics of home winemaking on his TV show.

A couple of year ago, if I remember well, In Italy we heard news about an
estate bought by Italian President of the Council of Ministers Silvio
Berlusconi in the brunello di Montalcino area. It should begin to produce in
two or three years.
Heard news that Michael Schumacher (F1 world champion) should have bought in
Maremma (south of Tuscany).
Movie artists and journalists famous in Italy produce their own wine.
