NAPA, CA—After being lovingly tended by generations of bin Ladens, the once-gorgeous Northern California vineyard upon which the late al-Qaeda founder Osama bin Laden’s family winery sits is now crumbling and covered with weeds, sources confirmed Friday.
“It’s such a tragedy because for decades, the name ‘bin Laden’ was practically synonymous with the award-winning cabernet and chardonnay varietals that made the Valley famous. Osama began learning how to tend the grapes when he was just 3 years old, with his father hoping that one day the boy would become a legendary vinter in his own right. Unfortunately, that legacy came to an end not long after the bin Ladens won theReaders’ Choice Award for best merlot back in ’09.
