The tribute features archival behind-the-scenes footage from the music video for “2 of Amerikaz Most Wanted.”
“It’s hard to believe it’s been 30 years since Pac and I got together to make ‘2 of Amerikaz Most Wanted.’ Nobody did it like us, and I can’t think of a better way to honor his legacy than with a drink,” said Snoop Dogg. “This wine is perfect for celebrating with loved ones, and I’m looking forward to the people pourin’ a little out with me for my friend.”

Watching the original music video of “2 Of Amerikaz Most Wanted”, you can feel the energy. Seeing them sitting at the table celebrating⌠you are there with them – raising a glass. Both Snoop and Tupac were signed to the legendary Death Row Records during the West Coast hip-hop boom of the 1990s – the “2 of Amerikaz Most Wanted” music video was the only one that Snoop and Tupac filmed together.
2 of Amerikaz Most Wanted is a Petite Sirah-dominant red blend that features notes of toasty oak, dark fruit, toffee, and baking spice.
