The first batch of Miraval Rose produced at Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s chateau in the South of France sold out within five hours of going on sale online last week, but fans of Wally’s Wine & Spirits in West Los Angeles can get in on a shipment due in May.
Up to six bottles, at $24.99 each, can be ordered from the store –thanks to what Wally’s calls its “special relationships with the parties involved.”
“Sales have been definitely brisk to say the least,” Wally’s owner, Christian Navarro, said.
Most orders have been for the six-bottle limit, and several customers have asked for more, he said.
Navarro said he estimated that more than 500 bottles were sold this morning alone. His loyal customers on an email list got first dibs.
“It’s a fantastic product,” he said, adding that it would be a big seller even without its celebrity appeal.
Navarro said Pitt and Jolie shop at Wally’s when in town, and they “want to make it into a real product — an estate wine.”
