Ricciardo launches wine range - but 'not for shoeys'

McLaren driver Daniel Ricciardo has launched his own wine range but the Australian has confirmed he will not be sampling the produce from a shoe.

Ricciardo has teamed up with Australian winery St Hugo to create a limited run of 'DR3' branded bottles of red wine.

In an entertaining promotional video, Ricciardo said: "I don't get involved with people or projects that I don't believe in. That's why myself and the iconic Australian winery St Hugo have created something that I truly do believe in - DR3."

Unfortunately, for international Ricciardo fans, the wine is currently only available to purchase in Australia, although a waitlist has been created for those eager to get a taste around the world.

The winery has launched both a cabernet sauvignon and shiraz, with each bottle of the limited-run numbered.
