The True Spanking Wine

For all of you that have never heard of the Kröver Nacktarsch this is a true spanking wine. Not for the wine itself, but for the wine labels. Every label has a picture of a spanking on the label. Each year is different. The wine itself is inexpensive and probably would not be found in fine wine cellars, but I am very fond of the labels and the wine is on the sweet side more to my liking than the dry vintages. The name itself means naked bottom and Kröver is the vineyard.

Here is a link to a collection of some of the past labels

I have only found one place in the US so far that imports it, Weinmax.

If you email gerald@weinmax.com he will email you back with prices and shipping costs. I was very happy with their service.

I never condone spanking and drinking. I just like the labels!

Those lables provide a vivid memory for me, Nisha. I saw one when I was about four and was mesmerized by it. It may have been the first "spanking" thing that clicked for me. The label I remember showed a boy getting spanked and a girl off to the side who'd just been spanked.

I love the lables. I saw them for the first time when I lived in Germany. When I came back I tried to find it here, but had little luck until last year when I ran across Winemax.

The wine isn't bad, I actually like it. It is more on the sweet side, a little sweeter than a white zin.
