Le Vignoble, an independent wine retailer in Plymouth is championing a selection of “New Years Resolution” wines, that includes a wine to fit everyone.
Frequenting this humble vino hobble, customers will be able to try a variety of different wines from producers all over the world, without feeling guilty. The wine bar has introduced a selection of “healthier” wines, including, Vegan Wine, Organic Wine and Low Alcohol wine, so wine lovers can enjoy a tipple of good quality wine, without overindulging.
Le Vignoble owner and wine expert Yannick Loué, feels that understanding wine is vital. Having a basic understanding of various wines, the process in which wine is made and grape varieties is important in order to know what is right for your body. Yannick stresses that wine doesn’t necessarily have to be unhealthy; when choosing wisely and aiming to avoid overindulgence you can enjoy a healthier lifestyle without having to give up wine completely.
Drinking a healthier wine is not just something that should be done in January when people are worried about what they are consuming; healthy wines can be enjoyed all year round. Personally I prefer a low alcohol wine as, the wines are lighter so I can taste more of the flavours.”
Yannick continues, “We are also really proud to offer vegan wine as this gels with my mantra “There is a wine for everybody” and lots of our customers have been excited to try our Organic and Natural wines as there is a really buzz around these products this year.”
