Enter Jon Bon Jovi.
JBJ and his son, Jesse, are releasing their own brand of rosé wine called Diving into Hampton Water, which apparently is a nod to how often that type of wine flows when the family is at their home in the Hamptons. JBJ even told The New York Times, “It’s a favorite in our household because you can drink it starting with lunch and into the evening, and we enjoy lots of it whenever we travel.”
