Wine Talk: Dwyane Wade Gets into the Wine Game
Jul 27, 2018
(Wine Spectator) - The basketball star makes reds and rosé in partnership with Napa's Pahlmeyer family
With a 15-year career in the NBA, Dwyane Wade, 36, has devoted the majority of his life to basketball. But recently, the three-time NBA champion, 12-time All-Star and longtime Miami Heat leading man has been training for another game entirely.
It’s no secret that Wade's been bitten by the wine bug—one only needs to follow him on Snapchat or Instagram to see bottle shots, wine-country visits and vinous escapades involving various NBA players.
But wine has become more than just a pastime. In 2014, Wade teamed up with Napa's Pahlmeyer family—makers of Wine Spectator's No. 9 wine of 2017—to start his own project, Wade Cellars. His first wine, the Wade Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2012, launched in China in 2015. Soon after, the wine made its way stateside.
Today, Wade Cellars comprises two labels: the flagship, Wade, whose current offering is the Wade Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2014 (mostly Oakville fruit), and Three by Wade, which includes a 2014 California red blend, a 2015 Napa red blend and a 2017 California rosé from Mendocino. Jonathan Keyes—whose winery credits include stints with Sine Qua Non, Outpost and Mark Herold—serves as winemaker.
