Mothers Against Drunk Driving are not going to like this one. Italian coachbuilder Aznom, which has previously rolled out custom MINIs like this pickup "tender" (http://www.autoblog.com/2006/03/13/geneva-auto-show-wrapup-castagna-tenders-crossed-up-minis/), has now produced a Clubman inspired by a vintage of another sort. The Aznom MINI Chateau is distinguished by a mobile wine cellar installed in the trunk, capable of housing http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/07/web-34-chateau.jpg (http://www.autoblog.com/photos/aznom-mini-chateau/896913/)six wine bottles in isolated comfort, along with six wine glasses with which to enjoy them. Aznom's wood veneer finish (http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/02/geneva-08-preview-castagna-gives-fiat-500-and-mini-clubman-a-b/) decorates the exterior and cabin, which also gets a unique leather trim. Riding on 18-inch TSW Pace rims shod with Yokohama rubber, Aznom will only produce 12 examples, each one individually numbered and personalized for their owners. We'll have to wait a few years to see if the Chateau gets better with age like the vino it transports.
