Trump's wine brand is actually decent — but his candidacy could lower sales

Unlike the allegedly terrible Trump Steaks, Trump Wine is apparently pretty good. Donald Trump's signature winery in the Charlottesville, Virginia, area is run by a respected winemaker, and it focuses on using only locally-grown grapes.

But the merits of the beverage have for some been overshadowed by Trump's political activities, as a Charlottesville sommelier named Erin Scala explains at the Washington Post. "While the election might take over your dinner conversation, a welcome table is not one that pours liquid politics down your throat," Scala writes, adding that, "For the same reason, if other candidates got into the beverage industry, I wouldn't be serving Clinton Chardonnay, Bernie Beer, or Cruztraminer, either."

Trump himself probably isn't losing any sleep over political distaste for his wine, which has certainly been a greater success than the steaks venture. It was even served at Chelsea Clinton's rehearsal dinner.
