Whether a cabernet, pinot noir or petit verdot, a glass of red wine holds many keys to a healthy, vibrant life — now and as you age. With moderate daily consumption of 1 to 2 glasses of red wine daily  (1 glass for women, 2 glasses for men), a perfect amont of phytochemicals are consumed. This has been shown to reduce the risk of heart disease, certain cancers and slow the progression of neurological degenerative disorders like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Disease. Here are some of the many benefits:

  • Promotes Longevity
  • Reduces Heart-Attack Risk
  • Lowers Risk of Heart Disease
  • Reduces Risk of Type 2 Diabetes
  • Lowers Risk of Stroke
  • Cuts Risk of Cataracts
  • Cuts Risk of Colon Cancer
  • Slows Brain Decline
