Freda's Wine Recommendations

If you haven't figured it out yet, I am a huge fan of red wine! I probably have a glass every night after my workout, with dinner or just because! Some days, Meghanne and I just break out the wine glasses and raise our glasses in cheer of how excited we are about the progress we are making here at AW headquarters!

At the moment, I am in love with Whole Foods Market for my wine purchases. Lately, they have some fantastic wines at bargain prices! In addition, if you buy 6 bottles or more, you get an extra 10% off! 

Now, I realize that you may not share my taste in red wine, but I am gonna pass this along anyway. When I look for wine, I love the dark fruits like: plums, black cherries, dark berries, blackberries, strawberries, chocolaty, vanilla...you get the picture right! Fruity, but not too sweet! 

This week I have three recommendations. This first one is my all time favorite at the moment, a nice 2006 Cabernet called Foxglove. It is delicious! Yummy delicious. You won't stop at one bottle delicious! That is all I know how to describe this wine. Whole Foods is always sold out of it when I try to buy it, that is how yummy it is! The value of this wine is around $16.00 and worth every penny too! 

My second favorite is an Australian wine by Yangarra Estate Vineyard. It is a 2006  McLaren Vale Old Vine Grenache. 

Last but not least, is Spanish wine which is a 2005 Jumilla called Altos de Luzon. It is a mixture of Monastrell, Cabernet Sauvignon and Tempranillo. Like the others...it is yummy.

I am not going to pretend like I know anything about wines with the exception of knowing what my taste buds and tummy like! All these wines are easy on your wallet and are valued under $20.00 at Whole Foods Market. So stop drinking Yellow Tail because ladies, it isn't wine at all. Expand your taste buds and get adventurous. Have some fun!

On New Years Day while at my neighbors, they had a variety of unique Spanish Red's from Whole Foods. I am really excited about sharing those with you too! Those will be next. 

Ciao Bella!
