Red Wine Time

For the wine enthusiasts in northern California, the wine crush is nearing it's end. A short-drive trip to Amador County from Sac will reward the casual wine drinker with an abundance of tasty opportunities. Unlike Napa, every place I have been in Amador offers free tasting too.
Unless one has issues with alcohol, it seems that a couple ounces a day of red red wine will keep the doctor away.

Some of the Benefits of drinking Red Wine:

Decreasing the levels of LDL's in the blood. That's Low-Density Lipoproteins. Aka sludge!
Increasing the levels of HDL's in the blood. That's High-Density Lipoproteins. These are good!
Decreasing the risk of blood clotting.
Free Radical neutralization with the powerful antioxidant, Resveratrol. Great stuff!

Enjoy some Red this month!
