A Perfect Marriage

aluminum and wine... it's my love for canned diet coke and my love for wine- -together. I'm not sure if this is REALLY a great idea but, hey, anything that makes drinking wine easier I'm ALL for. Especially exciting is how great winecans would fit in a koozie and a cooler. And um, WINECANS, how fun is it to say THAT?!? Like, "Oh, don't mind me, just returning my winecans." :)

Ice Wine

On a hot summer evening, why not cool down with some ice wine? Ice wine is a (delicious) dessert wine that is produced from grapes that have frozen on the vine. The water in the grape freezes but the sugars and other dissolved solids do not which results a very concentrated, and sweet, liquid. Only healthy grapes are able to stay on the vine when temperatures reach freezing so be assured that all grapes used to make ice wine are full-bodied and healthy! Because of the difficulty of processing frozen grapes and the low amount of of liquid yielded from them ice wine is significantly more expensive than table wine and often comes in much smaller bottles, but, I assure you- - it's worth every penny. The next time you're looking for a celebratory treat, try some ice wine. You won't be disapointed.
