E-40's Piña Colada Wine
Earl Stevens Selections has been E-40's California wine play for years, and Pinascato is the piña-colada entry: pineapple and toasted coconut folded into Moscato's floral, easy-drinking sweetness. The name is the recipe — pineapple + Moscato — and the serve is uncomplicated: chilled, over ice, pineapple wedge. Launch coverage (The Source, Hot 102.9, September 2023) frames it as a flavored wine rather than a traditional varietal pour. Browse more wine and the rest of the Earl Stevens line at Del Mesa.
