12 Days to Christmas (or #6 of 12 reasons for VineyardFresh to be your wine preserver)

There are "wines" we never think of that we would like to enjoy, but fail to do so very often. I am talking about vintage ports, ice wines, dessert wines, vermouth (ever have a bottle opened for a martini drinker and then never seemingly go back to it?) or even sake?  Well, why is that? I think if we ever really think about it, often it's because we almost subconsciously realize that we are only going to drink a "little" bit. Why waste it or take the chance that the bottle will spoil? Many of these wines are more for sipping, enjoying a taste during special occasions, or awaiting the opportunity when there will be enough people to share and...

12 Days to Christmas (or #5 of 12 reasons for VineyardFresh to be your wine preserver)

Don't these women look happy!  Why(ine) not?                                                             I was exhibiting at a consumer food and wine festival in the Washington DC area a number of years ago. These type of events are attended by a large number of people who usually are there to sample as many wines as they can possibly can for the price of their ticket. These events will generally run 3-4 hours and attendees will slosh and swirl and generally have a fabulous time of it. I enjoy watching as people enjoy themselves. At the beginning...

12 Days to Christmas (or #4 of 12 reasons for VineyardFresh to be your wine preserver)

There is still time for you to take care of those clients or potential clients that you would like to thank them for the business or considering you for their business. Something not "over the top". Something within the general price range of acceptability that companies have for employees to receive gifts. Yet something unique, different and maybe even conversational. You may be aware there is a wine interest, but have a hesitation to have anything alcoholic given as a gift. VineyardFresh fits the area of interest, while not delving in to those uncharted waters. The fact that VineyardFresh works on specialty cooking oils as well (to be talked about in a future "Days to Christmas"), places is  it as...

12 Days to Christmas (or #3 of 12 reasons for VineyardFresh to be your wine preserver)

Now instead of entertaining, you are being entertained. You are heading over to family and/or friends and you want to bring something. The hostess says that everything is handled, however, you know a modest, however nice hostess gift is in order. A bottle of wine is always appreciated, however, you may not have a "clue" as to what type of wine is preferred or liked. Do they enjoy reds or whites, or foreign or domestic, new world or old world. The options are endless. Why not take them a bottle of wine of your choosing and a canister of VineyardFresh and you can target the total price point in an appropriate range for the occasion. As you hopefully would have...

12 Days to Christmas (or #2 of 12 reasons for VineyardFresh to be your wine preserver)

I have been talking this up quite a bit so you'll have to pardon me if I repeat myself, however, with the holidays comes entertaining. Whether it is for family or friends, we all want people to have the best time and best experience possible. So, as a result, you are trying to figure out the wine choices. We all have had the experience of opening a bunch of bottles and then everyone leaves. In their wake, they leave behind varying degrees of open bottles. Some half full some less than half, and maybe even some barely touched.  Not that you can't plan to drink them, but not all at once. Everybody appreciates having options and now, thanks to the...
