The Baby is full of win today. The rapper decided to one-up Lil Jon’s winery, which I told you about awhile back, and now he’s at the top of my favorites with a new champagne: Halo Champagne. In case you haven’t heard, Ms. Nickels is somewhat of a champagne connoisseur [I even spelled that without looking it up]. I know the difference between brut and extra dry, so bring it Weezy Baby, make it rain champagne!!!! From AllHipHop.com:

Lil Wayne has partnered with Milestone Brands and French grower Voirin-Jumeh, to create his own brand of champagne.
Halo Champagne, which Wayne introduced to the world in the video for his chart topping hit “Lollipop,” is set to launch later this year.
“I’m excited about this venture with Milestone Brands,” Lil Wayne told AllHipHop.com in a statement. “Champagne is for celebrating. There are so many different business opportunities…I want to take advantage of it all. I’m ready to put my foot in a new door.”
Halo Champagne consists of four distinctive sub-brands, each with its own flavor.
Halo Brut, contains various flavors and a citrus finish, with hints of lemon cream and roasted hazelnut.
Halo Brut Vintage features a classic, creamy consistency and a stronger mix of lemon blossoms and almonds.
Halo Rose, a combination of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes, offers an aroma of pomegranate, crushed raspberries, and mint.
Finally, Halo Pinnacle is a fruity Chardonnay blend, capped off by hints of lime-tree flower and roasted hazelnuts.
Wayne’s French partner, Voirin-Jumeh is recognized as one of the finest makers of Chardonnay-based champagne.
The company, based in the Grand Cru Village of Cramant in Northeast France, has been known traditionally for artisanal champagne making.

I can’t wait! <3333

I posted news of Lil Jon’s winery a few days ago, but since then the winery’s website has been brought to my attention, giving the brand a mysterious and esoteric image.

“My full name is Jonathan,” Jon, whose last name is Smith, told the Associated Press Thursday. “The wine is more nature—I wanted to not just have a direct connection, but make it just a little bit more upscale than regular ‘Lil Jon.’”

Just when you thought, “Hey, isn’t it about time for a rapper to release another energy drink?” Lil Jon shakes the suburban-white-kid to the core with Little Jonathan wine. [WAAAT?!]

“I’m not no `drink wine every day’ kind of dude,” he said in a telephone interview. “I’m not like an expert, so don’t ask me no questions … I just like the taste.”[OKAAAAAY!]

“My full name is Jonathan,” the Atlanta-based artist said. “The wine is more nature: I wanted to not just have a direct connection, but make it just a little bit more upscale than regular ‘Lil Jon.’ … This is not no ghetto Boone’s Farm; this is some real wine.” [YAAAAYEAH!]

Hm… he knows nothing about wine, and yet he can assure us it’s not Boone’s (who’s website is from, like, 1995). Synthesis has some friends at BevMo that are going to hook it up. Stay tuned for reviews, straight from my pimp cup! The more I think about Lil Jon’s ventures, the more it makes sense to me. College kids are going to go crazy for this stuff. Carlo Rossi ain’t no rapper!
