Diane Keaton Talks About Her Wine Company, Prefers It Over Ice

Burbank, Calif. (CBS Sacrament0) -- Actress Diane Keaton is venturing out and unveiling her new wine called The Keaton. Unlike regular wine, Keaton's wine beverage must be served over ice, just the way she likes it, according to PEOPLE magazine.

Keaton said during the interview, "I'm not sure when I started that. I think most likely since it was so hot in New York when I lived there in the '70s. I used to go on the balcony to cool down since my apartment didn't have AC and one day I thought about trying it on ice. It has stuck ever since then!"

Keaton recently sat down on "The Ellen DeGeneres" show to talk about her new movie "And So It Goes" and even got giggly as she drank wine.

"My wines, both red and white, are everyday wines, tastes great on ice as well as simply poured in a glass." The Keaton wine won't break the pockets of wine lovers and part of the procedes will go to brain research at the Lou Ruvo Center in Las Vegas. This cause is very close to her heart because both her mother and father were affected by a brain disease.

Keaton has some rules though to anyone drinking her wine.

"Grab a low ball glass, fill with lots of ice, pour until all the ice is covered with the robust red wine, then enjoy."

She added, "It's not fancy. But neither am I."
