Born in 2017, Hampton Water is the fruit of the collaboration between Jesse Bongiovi, Bongiovi's rocker dad, Jon Bon Jovi, Ali Thomas, and acclaimed winemaker Gérard Bertrand. Hampton Water captures the spirit shared between the Hamptons and the South of France: enjoying life and a good bottle of wine to share with friends.
The idea behind the wine was sparked one night in the Hamptons after Jon Bon Jovi offered his son Jesse and Ali Thomas, Bongiovi's college roommate-turned-business-partner, a glass of "pink juice," which is Jon Bon Jovi's moniker for rosé. Jesse and Ali already had their own nickname for rosé, which they usually only drank in the Hamptons; they referred to it as Hampton Water. Jesse Bongiovi and Thomas turned that pet name into an award-winning rosé that perfectly blends the best French wine and the Hamptons laidback style.
The Hampton Water team partnered with an acclaimed winemaker and proprietor of outstanding vineyard estates in the South of France, Gerard Bertrand. The signature rosé is a blend of Grenache 60%, Cinsault 15%, Mourvèdre 15% and Syrah 10%.
"We wanted to create a wine that captured the spirit and lifestyle shared between the Hamptons and the South of France - long hot summers with family and friends, accompanied by a delicious glass of wine. Hampton Water encapsulates all of that," says Jesse Bongiovi.
Tickets are $50 and can be purchased here.
