While the wine has been available in Europe and Asia since 2007, here in the U.S. it's only served at Antonello Ristorante, an Italian restaurant in Santa Ana, Calif. However, a lucky few have had the opportunity to try it and have generously shared their expert opinion, as website Delish explains:
Hello Kitty wine just might be the cutest way to get your buzz on. In case you weren't already aware, the official Hello Kitty Wine is made in partnership by Italy's Torti Winery and Sanrio, the Japanese company that created Hello Kitty. While it's been in distribution since 2007 in some European and Asian markets, fans are getting excited to taste the wine in a whole new way. An Italian restaurant in Santa Ana, CA, called Antonello Ristorante will exclusively sell Hello Kitty Wine by the glass and the bottle (and to go!), alongside a creative Hello Kitty-themed menu. From Oct. 12 through Nov. 12, the restaurant's Hello Kitty tasting menu will include a salad with a watermelon shaped like Hello Kitty, pink pasta shaped like the iconic hair bow, and chocolate cake shaped like Hello Kitty.
It doesn't surprise us when see Hello Kitty on everything from T-shirts to cell phone cases, but we never expected a Hello Kitty-themed wine. However, we do think it's a fun way to get in touch with our inner child while also enjoying a very adult beverage!
