A Bit of the Ranch in a Bottle
By Carma Spence
If you’ve always wanted to see George Lucus’ famed Skywalker Ranch but just haven’t been able to make the trek, you can now have a piece of the ranch in your own home.
Francis Coppola’s winery, Rubicon Estate, has released the 2004 Lucas Skywalker Ranch “Viandante del Cielo” chardonnay and it is available for a limited time on the web.
“Viandante del Cielo” is a rough translation in Italian of “skywalker” and the wine is made from grapes grown on Skywalker Ranch.
If Bradbury’s dandelion wine could pack all of the joys of summer into a single bottle, then, I imagine that the 2004 Lucas Skywalker Ranch “Viandante del Cielo” chardonnay just might pack all the adventure of Star Wars in a bottle, as well.
