What is wine exactly? What is wine? Wine is an alcoholic beverage created from the fermented juice of grapes. Any fruit (apples, cranberries, plums, etc.) can be used to make wine, but if it just reads "wine" on the label, it's made with grapes. (By the way, wine grapes differ from table grapes). The difference between two popular beverages, wine and beer, is that beer is made from fermented grains. Simply said, wine is created from fruit, whereas beer is made from grain. 🔚

 What we’ve hinted at for months is finally here. To date Surely has served hundreds of thousands of customers. We have established ourselves as a key player in the N/A space and we’ve learned a lot in the last four years. In conversations with our customers we’ve heard many Surely drinkers express a desire to enjoy the taste and experience of wine while moderating their alcohol intake rather than cutting it out altogether. There are low-alcohol beverage options like seltzers and beers. But if you love wine, there really aren't any true low-alcohol options. So, we created Arlow: the first truly low-alcohol wines. We launch today with a Rosé, Sauvignon Blanc, and Cabernet Sauvignon, all at 6.5% ABV and the same full-bodied flavor of the full strength versions on the market. Half the alcohol, half the calories, 100% wine. The good news is that Surely isn’t going anywhere, we remain dedicated to the N/A consumer as a leader in that category. This is just one more step toward our mission to make wine for the moderation generation. Learn more at drinkarlow.com and don’t be a stranger at drinksurely.com

Did you know? The term "dry" refers to the level of sweetness in the wine. A "dry" wine contains little to no residual sugar, meaning that all the sugars from the grape juice have been fermented into alcohol by yeast. The absence of residual sugar gives dry wines a lack of sweetness on the palate. 🍷 Conversely, a wine described as "sweet" indicates the presence of noticeable residual sugar, as some of the grape sugars have not been fermented and remain in the finished wine, contributing a sweet taste.🍷 #PepperGreenEstate #SouthernHighlands #AwardWinningWines

First private event of the year - a small 70th birthday party. It’s interesting that before the event the main question is often "what wine can we drink with the chocolate?". I do advise on this if my suggestion of water doesn't go down too well because I know that as soon as we start the tasting no-one will be particularly interested in the wine anymore, they will be totally focused on the chocolate. But I would be interested to hear how other educators deal with the desire for alcohol at a tasting that isn’t specifically a pairing event. Are you strict or accommodating? #chocolatetasting #eventsuccess #eventservices #chocolateeducation #chocolateeducators
