October 15th is International Red Wine Day and we want to celebrate it properly!

2. Red Wine Has More Antioxidants

Red wines are packed full of antioxidants like resveratrols, polyphenols and flavonoids. These have excellent health benefits like protecting your blood vessels, reducing blood pressure and lowering cholesterol levels.

5. Red Wine And Cheese Are The Perfect Match

Your cheese board isn't complete if there's no red wine to accompany it. 

 

6. It's Essential For Cooking
