Meteorito Wine: 4.5 Billion-Year-Old Meteorite Flavored Wine
Thursday, January 19, 2012 |
ian hutcheon,
meteorite wine,
weird,
wtf 
Wine flavored with meteorite?!?! Yep! I would imagine that it tastes about as good at it sounds.
"Vineyard owner Ian Hutcheon is promoting Meteorito, the first wine aged with a roughly 4.5 billion-year-old meteorite believed to be from the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. "
The meteorite used in the wine comes from the Atacama Desert in northern Chile, which fell to Earth about 6,000 years ago.
Ian is all about space and even owns his own observatory in Chile, the Centro Astrononomica Tagua Tagua. Unfortunately, if you want a bottle for yourself you will have to make the trip to him.
How much a bottle? Who knows, but probably astronomical. ;)

Astronomical... hahahahaha, so profound! What's next? Pamela Anderson's dildo-infused wine? I'm not sure which one yuo'd get the most extra-terrestrial bacteria from... but new trends have got to start somewhere. Could actually bring some class back into the porn industry, you know, wine being classy and all, and pornstar panties adding that extra zing...
