Are their grapes as good as their tunes? You be the judge.

Scaggs Vineyard

The talent: Boz Scaggs, singer + guitarist

The story: Co-founder of SF music club Slim's and co-owner of The Great American Music Hall, Scaggs is as particular about his wines as he is about his bluesy riffs. He produces only small-batch Rhône-style red blends and a boutique rosé on his certified-organic Napa vineyard.

Pairing: 2010 Scaggs Vineyard Rosé with "Look What You've Done to Me."

Claypool Cellars

The talent: Les Claypool, lead singer + bassist, Primus

The story: “It was either a plane or a vineyard," says Claypool of his decision to throw down bucks for Russian River Valley property in 1994. The East Bay rocker initially set out to make cabernet before realizing that his lush land was better suited to a smooth pinot noir.

Suggested Pairing: 2012 CC Pachyderm Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir and The Claypool Lennon Delirium, Claypool's latest project with Sean Lennon.

Finale Wines

The talent: Jonathan Cain, keyboardist, Journey

Earl Stevens Selections

The talent: E-40, rapper

The story: After celebrating the grape in hit songs such as “Carlos Rossi" and “Santana DVX," Vallejo-based rapper Earl Stevens (aka E-40)—whose moniker comes from his uncanny ability to chug 40-ounce malt liquor bottles—has launched three blends of his own, including a bold Function Red Blend and a fruity Mangoscato, which, at 18 percent alcohol, packs quite the punch.

Pairing: Function Red Blend and 1992's “Carlos Rossi."
