Nello Olivo Wines

“Glug Glug Glug” The Grapefather rap.

Wine rap, filmed in his own rows at Rancho Olivo.

Read the transcript

[The Grapefather, a music video. Nello Olivo appears as the Grapefather, in a tuxedo and fedora, at the winery and in the cellar. Lyrics as sung; bracketed lines are sound cues.]

[music]

I'm going to sell you a bottle that you cannot refuse.

[music]

[record scratch]

Uh, what?

[music]

Do y'all know where I holler?

The itty bitty city in the El Do'.

Old grapes are getting taller, El Dorado.

You know, outside of Napa Land.

That's where the Grapefather stands.

Check it out.

He be sippin' Barbera, eatin' pasta e fagioli, makin' legs disappear like F.F. Coppola.

Got the ladle who know the merlot gettin' nose.

When he got the call from Marco sent the East Coast tryin' to sell them bottles too.

His reply?

They know not what they do.

We bring the East to their knees, open bottles, let 'em breathe, crush 'em grapes, let 'em bleed.

Nello's got no stems or seeds, boy.

Nello, Nello, Nello, can't you see?

Sometimes you're wine intoxicates me.

I just love your glassed grapes.

I could sit and sip this glass all day.

(La la la la)

Swallow, la la la.

He's the old Grapefather, the OG.

You barkin' up the wrong tree.

I'm tryin' M.O.B.

Soakin' corks daily.

(Can you help me?)

Drinkin' that A.L.C.

(Can you help me?)

'Cause we the M.O.B.

The big dog, so be real with ya.

Tell me how it feels to ya.

Learn early, don't be meltin' up a million.

We make Merlot, y'all make Merlot.

So get some penicillin', heard that you got that, that bunch, right?

Nello's, heart pump, Sagrantino.

Sippin' Primitivo from G-father to Bambino.

(La la la la)

So don't pop the cap, push it down, down, down.

Bottles up, turns up, steppin' to the hang town.

We like 'em full bodies, oeuvre.

The father approve, yeah.

Big at the top with a smoother caboose.

(La la la la la)

'Cause we like our Vino, like we like our women, you know.

(Sippin' Primitivo from G-father to Bambino)

Got that body.

(Sippin' Primitivo from G-father to Bambino)

Forget it.

(La la la la la)
