Wanna toast to Messi & Sunday’s victory? There’s an Inter Miami wine (and a glass)
Who knows what a Venn diagram of soccer fans and wine lovers looks like, but if a such a subsect exists, then Mano Wine is ready for the big ballin’ oenophile.
The Kansas City-based company has an Inter Miami CF wine bottle with the team’s logo deep-etched and hand-painted. The wine inside is a California Cabernet Sauvignon and costs $39.95.
There’s also an upgrade available: “We offer a custom option where fans can have their name engraved into the bottle for the ultimate keepsake and collector’s item,” says Bailey Haase, creative director at Mano’s Wine.
Get your name on the bottle for $54.95. To order, go to manoswine.com/collections/inter-miami-cf.
Or — and hear us out on this — you can get super-duper soccer star Lionel Messi’s name on your Cali Cab. Mano’s Wine says that the goal-getter has been good for business.
“Yes, we believe the excitement of Messi joining the team has increased interest,” Haase adds.
Mano’s Wine gets vino from vineyards around the world. Then they blend, age, finish and bottle for the finished product. The Inter Miami (and all Major League Soccer bottles) are a part of their signature hand-crafted series, with a minimum of 25 artisans doing the deep-etching and hand-painting on each one.
“We’ve had the MLS license since around 2018 and have been working towards growing the brand and license. MLS fans are amazing and passionate. We strive to create a product that will be enjoyed and displayed in ‘fan caves’ for years after the wine is gone,” Haase says.
