Five Things You May Not Know About Wine

The cost of wine is not an indicator of quality, there are many factors that have an effect on the price of a wine.

If you’re planning to taste several wines in a row, begin with the light whites and work your way through the full-bodied whites, followed by light reds and then finish with the heavy reds.

Most wines come in under the 130 calorie mark per 6oz. serving.

California accounts for over 90% of total U.S. wine production and approximately two out of every three bottles of wine sold in the United States.

When wine and food are paired together, they have “synergy”, creating a third flavor beyond the food or wine alone. Sphere: Related Content

Hecht & Bannier Cotes du Roussillon Villages 2006


Hecht & Bannier Cotes du Roussillon Villages 2006
The Hecht & Bannier 2006 Cotes du Roussillon Villages smells of cedar, coconut (from a significant proportion of new wood), cherry, marjoram, and smoke. Stimulating hints of cherry pit bitterness along with smoke, herbal pungency, and graphite and crushed stone add to the dynamic impression conveyed by unusually fresh fruit, leading to a long, lip-smacking finish.
