However, though the 9-5 mega star has introduced her new boozy line, she said she rarely drinks and 'never did alcohol or drugs'.

She told NME: 'I do drink if I’m out on a special dinner and ‘cos I don’t like to fly, so I usually have a couple of glasses of wine, but for the most part I’m just not much of a doper or a drinker.

The singer is one of a number of celebrities including Kylie Minogue, to have launched an alcohol brand.

Dolly's wine carries the flavours of 'white peach, sweet cream, and toasty oak' and has white raspberry as its stone fruit.

The website describes the wine as 'a perfect pairing for a Southern-inspired meal like Shrimp and grits'.

For those who can't wait until the release date, the sweet peachy wine is already available via a pre-sale for those in the US.

Pre ordering customers who order though the online retailers Vivino can also sign up to the limited '$1 Dolly Days' for just a dollar at checkout which will give them a month's free delivery with a month of Vivino Plus.

The Dolly Wines collection will include Chardonnay, Rosé and Prosecco, with a fourth, Sparkling, launching in Australia in September this year.

The Rosé and Prosecco will be released in Fall 2024 to retailers across the United Kingdom.

According Accolade Wines Chief Marketing Officer, Sandy Mayo, the country star was immersed in the entirety of the winemaking process, giving her input on taste, look and feel to ensure each bottle 'perfectly represents the magic that Dolly brings to the world'.

She added: 'We think they capture her captivating sense of fun and sparkle perfectly. Like the lady herself, we think everyone, everywhere will love it. Go ahead, pour yourself a cup of ambition!'

Her wine collection is the latest instalment into the star's plethora of commercial endeavors, which includes dog apparel merchandise, fragrances, books and her infamous theme park - Dollywood.

The 78-year-old - who gets 20 million listeners on Spotify - announced last week at CMA Fest that she's 'finally developing' Hello, I'm Dolly: An Original Musical for the Broadway stage in 2026.

'Very excited about that, so you'll get to know all my life up to now, and it's not a jukebox musical,' the 78-year-old national treasure said onstage the Music City Center.

She has been writing the book, music, and lyrics 'for several years' on the musical, which is named after her first studio album released in 1967.

In February this year, the country singer also launched a 'rockin' new baking collection' in her Duncan Hines line.

'My love for pets is stronger than ever,' she said in a statement. 'This inspired me to start my own line of Doggy Parton apparel, accessories, toys and more with a little 'Dolly' flair.'

There are several chewy Dolly-themed toys available, including a plush microphone, guitar and hot pink platform heel.

Dolly collaborated with SportPet Designs on the pet items, which also include a feathered pink cowboy hat and a hilarious blond wig so that dog owners can make their pooch look just like the Jolene singer.

Fans of the songstress aren't just limited to tasty treats and dog decoration, but they can even mimic her unique scent

She advertised the brand in a 2021 Super Bowl commercial.

A statement on the website for the product read: 'Having my own perfume has always been a dream of mine. For as long as I can remember, people have commented on my scent. "What are you wearing?", "What is that fantastic smell?," and "Where can I get it?" are all questions I have heard daily for more years than I can remember.

Dolly also famously has her own theme park, known as Dollywood, which she launched in 1986. As of 2019, it had approximately 3,000 people on its payroll - making it the largest employer in the community. Pictured in 1988

Dolly World is located in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, which is nestled in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains.

The venue is owned by The Dollywood Company - a branch of the Herschend Family Entertainment (HFE).

The Dollywood Company also owns the Dolly Parton's Stampede diner attraction chain and Dollywood's Splash Country - a water park.

In 2022, Dolly revealed that she left a piece of her art that only future generations will be able enjoy at the beloved location.

During an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show the legendary singer-songwriter said that she wrote and recorded a secret song that's now buried in a time capsule beneath her theme park in Tennessee.

'You have no idea how that has bothered me,' she joked, before adding, 'I wanna go dig that up so bad. It's a really good song!'

By waiting 30 years to open to the time capsule, that translates to the year 2045, which would be when Parton is 99-years-old.

'I have to honestly say that was an odd feeling to be asked to write a song that nobody that was not going to be heard [for 23 more years,' she added.

Beyond her music and more commercial projects, Dolly has also dabbled in acting - famously starring in the movie 9 to 5, which is also a musical - and the critically acclaimed Steel Magnolias.

The 78-year-old multi-hyphenate has also recently opened up about her top tips for business savvy young people.

'Find out who you are and do it on purpose,' she told Business Insider. 'That means if you really want to know who you are, you really got to put some thought, prayer, and effort in trying to figure out what that is.

'Dreams can come true. I'm a prime example of that — just a country girl from the mountains.'

Dolly broke into the music industry as a singer on The Porter Waggoner Show in 1967.

Since then, she's gone on to have 21 certified gold or platinum hits, won 11 Grammys, and dozens of other music awards.

Over her nearly 60 year career, she has also earned an Emmy, a GLAAD Media Award, a Kennedy Center Honor and been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

The actress who was nominated for an Oscar for her hit 9 to 5 theme song, acknowledges not everyone is destined for the kind of success she has experienced over her career, but wants young people to build on their own talents as they forge ahead.
