London, June 23 (ANI): The set of Johnny Depp's new movie is full of booze, thanks to the actor, who is shipping in home-grown wine for the cast and crew.
While filming Public Enemies, with Oscar-winner star has had shipments of his home-grown plonk sent over to the set in Illinois.
Johnny's a fine wine buff and has his own vineyard in the South of France. He's had 10 crates of his own wine shipped over to keep him going, The mirror quoted a source, as saying.
He is very serious about his hobby and does everything himself - from selecting the grapes to working the machinery.
He's done wine-tasting courses and has read virtually all there is to read on the subject. Johnny's a connoisseur, the source added.
The actor also shipped over some bottles of his favourite Bordeaux Petrus, which he's been generously dishing out to everyone on set.
It's fair to say that he's made filming a far more enjoyable experience, the source said. (ANI)

JOHNNY DEPP - JOHNNY DEPP GETS WINE DELIVERED TO SET
JOHNNY DEPP has been having shipments of his favourite home-made wine delivered to the set of his latest movie.
The PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN has been treating the cast and crew to his selection of wine on the set of new film PUBLIC ENEMIES, reports the Mirror.
Johnny is something of a wine buff and has been having shipments sent over "to keep him going", a source has said.
"He is very serious about his hobby and does everything himself - from selecting the grapes to working the machinery. He's done wine-tasting courses and has read virtually all there is to read on the subject. Johnny's a connoisseur," said the source.
Generous Johnny also had several bottles of Bordeaux Petrus delivered, as his home-grown wines would not quite stretch to all members of the crew.
The film has been involved in a real life incident, as a youth has been arrested on suspicion of taking part in a drive-by shooting close to the movie's set.

SPIT: carbon footprint of wine!
Johnny Depp, currently on location in Chicago shooting a 1930s gangster film directed by Michael Mann, had 10 cases of French wine flown to the set. “He is really enjoying filming but the only problem is that Illinois isn’t exactly famous for its vineyards and Johnny is quite particular about his wine. When he couldn’t put up with the local wine any longer, he decided to organise for a shipment of his own to be sent across as well as his favourite Bordeaux Petrus.” Ah, yes, French wine is so hard to find in Chicago many locals resort to having it flown in–on private jets if possible. Bonus: “Depp famously had a tattoo on his arm that read “Winona Forever” but was altered to “Wino Forever” after the pair split up.” (Thanks, Josh!)
