We found this beautiful property southwest of Cortez after searching for several years while maintaining our corporate careers in Denver. Beginning in 1998, we transformed a homestead hay farm in McElmo Canyon that we purchased in October 1997 into vineyards and built our straw bale winery and home. Our mission here is to make distinctive premium wines and offer a memorable experience for visitors to our winery in this enchanting corner of Colorado.

Doctor Lanzmann-Petithory has called into question a study by French National Cancer Institute, that links drinking wine with cancer of the mouth, pharynx and larynx. The study which was much quoted by the anti-alcohol lobby in France and was a key part of the drive to have very strict laws (Evin) governing the sale and consumption of alcohol. According to Doctor Lanzmann-Petithory wine drinkers have a 58% lower rate of cancer (mouth, pharynx and larynx) then non drinkers. “Wine contains two components, which exert opposing effects: alcohol, which increases the risk of certain cancers and fruit which lowers this risk. Therefore, for moderate drinkers, the influence of fruit is stronger”,

Two Aussies picked up more than $50 million each this week in the lotto, and we’re sure they’re drinking great wine. But what about the rest of us? This week we check out three wines that are great bargains and can be found for well under $10 each. There’s the McWilliams Inheritance Semillon/Sauvignon Blanc, the Angove Long Row Shiraz and De Bortoli Deen Vat 1 Durif. Combined we spend less than $22 on all three!

The concept of Due Vigne di Famiglia began to evolve over 30 years ago when Ken Musso became fascinated that his father and grandfather made a substantial amount of wine in the basement of a landmark mortuary in San Francisco. Winemaking became even more intriguing when Kens cousins discovered a few bottles of his grandfathers last vintage in their basement, the 1937 zinfandel. It was then that Ken knew it was his destiny to carry on the family tradition.

This is a bargain bucket wine from the supermarket chain Lidl (http://www.lidl-info.com). It is very drinkable if lacking in any depth but at €1.99 it is a real bargain and perfect for relaxed drinking at a BBQ or just relaxing outside in the sun. If you enjoy a light fruity wine then is excellent.Even works with a good bit of a chill on it. If you want a bottle of plonk to wash down the BBQ offerings, then this is ideal. It would also be ideal for making sangria.
Cost = €1.99
