#Wines : #UncorkedVentures


This is the product that I would say perfect to give as a gift in every occasion. I was more than thrilled when I received this box because honestly, I didn't know that it is a wine, much more ... two bottles of delicious wines. I thought I will be receiving accessories such as wine opener or something. To my surprise, this is what I got and of course, it exceeded my expectation.

Shipping and Handling

The packaging as you can see on the picture below is very nice. The label is attractive that it makes me want to open it right away and savor the goodness of these wines. I have no complain with the shipping and handling because it arrived on my doorstep in perfect condition and in a timely manner.

So, do you love white wine or red wine? Either you buy it for special occasion or could be an addition to your wine cellar collection, the Wine Exploration Wine Clubs is worth checking in for. You should know that Uncorked Ventures is a family owned and operated business. They are the ones who travel the country's vineyard and meet the winemakers; seeking for the best wines and shares them to us at affordable price. Those who sign up to become a member will get the best deals of course.


What I got in the box are:

1. California Red Wine - Easton House 2009.
For more info on this wine, check out EastonWines.com

My cousin personally love this wine because it compliments well with his steak dinner. It's dry, robust flavor, earthly, rich, and has that distinct smell to it but, truly nice.


2. White Wine from Chatom Vineyards- 2012 Semillon
For more info, check out ChatomVineyards.com

This is the husband's favorite. Oh he loves white wine because it has an after taste to it. It has that light golden color, very light, has that nice smell to it, sweet and super dry. It goes well with cheese and seafood meal.

As for me, I love both. I tried both wines and I am torn between the two. For sure, I will be drinking a glass of wine before bedtime. Would you like to know more about these great tasting wines? Just follow them on Facebook today and don't forget to browse the wines at Uncorked Ventures.

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Drink To Your Health

Wine can be good to your body if you drink moderately.

Few weeks ago, my husband and I went to a wine tasting festival. It was my fourth time and I enjoyed the whole day activity. Wine tasting is the sensory evaluation and examination of wine, and even though I am not a “drinker”, I can appreciate a good taste.

Experienced tasters can distinguish the characteristic of a specific flavor in the wine. In my case, I rely on my palate and I think I like white wine better. Now, look closely on the infographic below and let us educate ourselves regarding wines and health.

Lakeridge Winery and Vineyards

Most weekends are like the schedule for our short roadtrips. Hubby and I would just hit the road and just enjoy the ride. One time, as we drove down the Florida Turnpike, we saw cars and buses parked on the huge area. We saw tents, people wandering on the festival grounds and we heard music from a live band. We are curious because some cars are heading that way. We follow the road and we saw the signage of Lakeridge Winery and Vineyards. The admission and parking are free for all the guests and complimentary winery tours and wine tasting were offered throughout the day. We simply follow the queue for wine tasting and it was fun. The wine tastes delicious especially with Godiva chocolates. We end up buying four bottles of Lakeridge Wine when we went home.
