American Deadheads who can’t get enough of their favorite rock band now have two new wines from Gnarly Head that offer a fun way to toast the Grateful Dead and keep the vibes flowing. Back by popular demand following last fall’s successful launch, Gnarly Head wines and the Grateful Dead today announced the release of two limited-edition vintages—a gnarly Old Vine Zinfandel and a Cabernet Sauvignon—that bring two of the band’s most-loved and iconic graphics to life in stunning labels that glow under black light.

The Limited-Edition 2021 Gnarly Head x Grateful Dead Old Vine Zinfandel and Limited-Edition 2021 Gnarly Head x Grateful Dead Cabernet Sauvignon will be available at major retailers and specialty liquor stores nationwide beginning in September, at a suggested retail price of $12.

The Limited-Edition Old Vine Zinfandel features the Dead’s lovable, dancing bears with a new glow-under-blacklight design that gives the smiling bears a whole new life. Originating from the back cover art on the band’s 1973 album “History of the Grateful Dead, Volume One (Bear’s Choice)”, the bears celebrate their 50th anniversary this year. The Limited-Edition Cabernet Sauvignon showcases the Grateful Dead’s emblematic “Steal Your Face” design, illuminating the skull with swirling lines that look even cooler when glowing under black light.

“We’re so excited to feature this iconic art from one of America’s greatest rock bands on our classic Old Vine Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon,” comments Andrew Blok, Portfolio Director for Delicato Family Wines, which makes Gnarly Head wines. “These unique wines are truly a special collector’s edition for Deadheads and Gnarly Head fans alike.”

Grateful Dead archivist and legacy manager, David Lemieux, notes, “The Grateful Dead experience has always been one-of-a-kind, so it’s fitting to partner again with Gnarly Head Wines to create one-of-a-kind wine bottle.es The music of The Grateful Dead has always invoked connection and authenticity rooted in passion and creativity, much like the California wines crafted by Gnarly Head. We hope to continue to inspire existing and new fans alike to jam out and rejoice in some great music and wine.”
