You have been invited to a dinner party and need to
pick up a quality wine for supper. No need to walk up and down the aisle to
find the right wine that meets both the quality and cost criteria you had in
your head when you first stepped into the store. Apothic Red 2012 is a blend of
Syrah, Zinfandel, and Merlot that balances the different wines for a high
quality outcome.
It contains mostly sweet flavors that include raspberry,
cherry, vanilla, mocha and some boysenberry. It is a smooth wine with a hardy
body and a pleasant aftertaste. This would be the type of wine you would pick
up for just about any social affair. Most drinkers will be satisfied with the
quality, taste, and consistency of their product.
Apothic Red Wine Maker’s Blend is a winter wine by style
and complements a variety of winter related foods. Meat dishes, heavy soups,
and wild game regularly pair with a heavier red wine. Room temperature wine
also complements hot dish foods more commonly in the cool months.
Red wine is generally considered healthiest choice
among wines. Studies have shown that red wine compounds in the form of
polyphenols play a role in inhibiting lipid peroxidation, free radicals, platelet
aggregation, and strengthens anti-inflammation (Natella, et. al, 2011). A glass
of wine every once in a while has positive supporting effect on overall health.

plasma oxidized lipids. Journal of Wine
