Just when you thought your Halloween couldn’t get any more thrilling, 19 Crimes, in collaboration with Universal Products & Experiences, rolls out their bone-chilling, limited-edition wine series for the second year in a row. This spooky season, wine enthusiasts and horror fans alike can sip on some seriously sinister spirits with the classic Universal Monsters etched onto every bottle.
This year’s spine-tingling lineup features the returning champion, Frankenstein Cabernet Sauvignon, and introduces a new, daring contender—the Bride of Frankenstein Red Blend. These aren’t your ordinary Halloween treats. Each bottle comes dressed in a glow-in-the-dark label, with augmented reality (AR) features that will bring the chilling characters to life right before your eyes.
Sarah Bakx, President of BOLD Brands at Treasury Americas, shares her excitement about the eerie ensemble: “The Bride of Frankenstein joins Frankenstein in our lineup, and together they embody the same rebellious spirit as 19 Crimes – challenging conventions and breaking the rules. This collaboration continues to push the boundaries of traditional wine culture by bringing these iconic characters to life in a fresh and captivating way.”
Universal Monsters brings imagination to life with 19 Crimes Wine
The Frankenstein Cabernet Sauvignon offers a hauntingly smooth sip with whispers of vanilla, red currants, cherries, and a mysterious hint of chocolate—perfect for those chilly October nights. On the other hand, the Bride of Frankenstein Red Blend balances the bold flavors of vanilla and chocolate with a seductive cedar spice that’s sure to awaken your palate.
Enhancing the Halloween experience, 19 Crimes invites you to delve into a unique AR experience. By scanning the QR code found on the back of each bottle, these iconic Universal Monsters leap from the label, offering a story and presence as dynamic as the wines themselves.
Can the dude on the other line at least go on another wine run?
