Spanish wine maker Ribera del Duero have created a new wine called to “honor” the gay community called “Mundo Gay”. According to its creators, Mundo Gay aims to live up to its name through showing a ‘special charisma, unique sensibility and defined style’. Fernando Martín, spokesman for the brand, said:

With gay marriage having been introduced in Spain and more liberty in the country, we wanted to take a step towards opening people’s minds in the small agricultural area of Ribera del Duero’ […] Rather than being aimed specifically at gay people, the wine serves as a homage to the gay community, an honour, […] It would be absurd if we made a wine exclusively for gay people.

Absurd indeed. But what does gay wine taste like, Fernando?

The tasting note reads: ‘Powerful nose, with spicy primary notes and secondary notes of chocolate and nuts. Elegant, suave and meaty on the palate.’

Yes, nothing says gay more than meat on your palate.
