About the Producer

It's no secret to fans of the band that Bruce Dickinson, the lead singer, is a true jack of all trades. As well as fronting one of the best-known heavy metal bands on the planet, he is an airline pilot, has a PhD in History and also produces beer and wine. After beer, a business he already owned, Dickinson signs his first “Made in Portugal” wine, made by Van Zeller Wine Collection.

Like his beer brand, this wine is also inspired by one of the singles from Iron Maiden's latest album, released in 2021. In Darkest Hour, Bruce Dickinson pays a kind of tribute to the British resistance during World War II and, in particular, to the figure of Winston Churchill. The story of the wine is simpler - symbolically, a Douro DOC from the 2021 harvest was chosen to create this red (a “darkest red”, as Bruce likes to joke), from two of the region's traditional grape varieties, Touriga Nacional and Tinta Roriz.
