Jerry Mead wrote about it a couple of times. The label had a ring of pot leaves around the outside edge. They were selling it for $20 a bottle on up to most customers. You had to know someone to know about the wine and buy any.

Great nose of pot but not much flavor. Te winemaker added 2 oz of good pot to 5 gal of wine then let it sit for a few weeks, racked the wine and bottled it.

Still, if one is busted making pot-infused wine, and holds a winery license, their losses, if caught, could be huge. There would be legal fees and the winery would be shut down. The license to make and sell wine would be revoked. There’s a reason no one wants to talk about this. Some stories in the wine business are best left unreported.

Ironically, it could be just the form of manipulation that natural wine enthusiasts could champion and might cause point-pushers to beat their points into plowshares. Cuvée MJ heals all wounds?

And we’re square in the, ahem, target demographic.

It’s a very, very well buried secret in the business and will remain that way. The TTB would have a field day with anyone using an illegal substance anywhere near alcohol production; a real double-whammy of an offense. So, believe you me, this one’s going to stay on the DL.
