Wanted to share a pic of a few bottles in my wine collection.. I have to laugh when I see these bottles collecting dust because I am not sure how I got started collecting unusual bottles of wine. As you can tell, no these are not 'expensive' bottles.. I think the most expensive one I have was 30 bucks and that is way to expensive for me...
My favorite to drink(taste that is) is the Stone Hill Concord, and the bottle in the picture will be empty by the end of the weekend cause a little wine is good for your heart so the experts say.....:)
I was in Maine a couple years ago and and asked a waiter in a restaurant if they served any Missouri wines, and he looked at me with a very puzzled look on his face, and said that he did not think they were able to offer a Missouri wine. He was from another country so he probably was thinking 'what is this country hick talking about and where is Missouri?'
Does red wine protect against heart disease? Maybe. Many studies investigated the benefits of red wine suggested that moderate amount of red wine (one drink a day for women and two drinks a day for men) lowers the risk of heart attack for people in middle age by ~ 30 to 50 percent. It is also suggested that alcohol such as red wine may prevent additional heart attacks if you have already suffered from one. Other studies also indicated that red wine can raise HDL cholesterol (the Good cholesterol) and prevent LDL cholesterol (the Bad cholesterol) from forming. Red wine may help prevent blood clots and reduce the blood vessel damage caused by fat deposits. Indeed, studies showed that people from the Mediterranean region who regularly drank red wine have lower risks of heart disease
What's in Red Wine that are good for heart?
Red wine is a particularly rich source of antioxidants flavonoid phenolics, so many studies to uncover a cause for red wine's effects have focused on its phenolic constituents, particularly resveratrol and the flavonoids. Resveratrol, found in grape skins and seeds, increases HDL cholesterol and prevent blood clotting. Flavonoids, on the other hand, exhibit antioxidant properties helping prevent blood clots and plaques formation in arteries.
