For the past few years, the Grammy- and Oscar-winning entertainer and philanthropist has been building his namesake winery: Legend Vineyard Exclusive. The collection is in partnership with Raymond Vineyards Proprietor Jean-Charles Boisset and includes a cabernet, chardonnay, a red blend, and now a rosé. Legend has been interested in wine for a long time, even before touring allowed him to taste rare varietals from around the world. Turning his hobby into a business venture apparently quenches some of the same thirsts that his other job does.
“My approach to making music is very similar [to my approach to making wine],” Legend says. “You don’t always get it perfectly, and everyone’s taste is different, but at least you know you’re going into it with the same goal and hopefully you come out with something magical.”
