Kobe's Wife Vanessa Bryant Starts Wine Business

Vanessa submitted docs on Nov. 5 to secure trademarks that indicate her aspirations to enter the wine business with "Mamba Vino," "Mamba Vino 2024," "Mamba Vino 8," and "Mamba Vino 24" Kobe Bryant, LLC which is run by Vanessa is listed as the applicant on the filing with Bryant signing off on all the paperwork. This move is the latest in a series of business moves by Vanessa as we previously reported, last month she filed a trademark for digital collectible items, websites, training camps, broadcasting platforms, podcasts, TV shows, movies, documentaries and music as well as sports cards, food/drink containers and t-shirts. All four new trademark names include one of Kobe's many nicknames, "vino" cause many people thought his game got better with age. The names also pay tribute to the numbers Kobe wore 8 and 24 of course, both numbers are retired by Lakers and hang in the rafters at the Staples Center.
