Stones hit bottle shops with a rockin' red

With their Australian tour just under a month away, the Rolling Stones are rocking bottle shops with the release of a red wine.

With their Australian tour just under a month away, the Rolling Stones are rocking bottle shops with the release of a smooth shiraz.

Produced by Riverina wine producer Warburn Estate, the Stones' 50th-anniversary wine follows the successful launch of AC/DC's wine two years ago.

Francis Fusca, executive director of sales and marketing at Warburn Estate, said in a statement: "Lovers of the Rolling Stones will appreciate this exclusive wine. Like the band, it's punchy, bold and leaves an impression fans won't soon forget."

A collectors' item for fans, the Rolling Stones 2012 McLaren Vale Shiraz bears the iconic tongue and lips logo and is priced at $15.70 per bottle.

The release means those who didn't get their hands on tickets to the Stones' 14 On Fire tour will still be able raise a glass to the band's half century together.

The wine goes on sale from Thursday at Dan Murphy's in NSW, Victoria, Queensland and South Australia and on March 1 in Western Australia.
