Hollywood star couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have now become successful wine producers with their brand getting ranked at number 84 in a list of 100 wines of the year.
The couple's Chateau Miraval Rose 2012 has been named the "best Rose in the world" by Wine Spectator, reported Us magazine.
Wine Spectator Managing Editor Kim Marcus called the rose "Refined and elegant, offering pure and concentrated flavors of dried red berry, tangerine and melon. The focused finish features flint and spice notes, with a hint of cream."
In 2012, the couple partnered with the Perrin family, a fifth-generation winemaking brood located in France's Provence region, to develop their own rose wine under the Jolie-Pitt & Perrin brand.
The wine was created in Chateau Miraval, the couple's 35-bedroom estate with adjoining 1,200-acre vineyard, which they purchased in 2012 for USD 60 million.
Jolie, 38, and fiance Pitt, 49, had vacationed at the stunning spot since 2008 with their six children, and Pitt proposed to the actress there in early 2012.
