California Wine Limo Excursions



There are so many wineries in California that your explorations can often result in the need for third party transportation. With California wine limo excursions, you can get around in comfort and luxury.


California Wine Limo Excursions


Most wine lovers know about the big northern California wine regions - Napa Valley and Sonoma Valley. These areas produce some of the highest quality and most appreciated wines in the entire US. There are, however, other northern California wine regions; one of them is Anderson Valley. Home to some of the least known yet highly praised wineries in the state, California wine limo excursions of the Anderson Valley and Mendocino can be very rewarding - you will feel like you're discovering a wine region few others have visited.


Mendocino wine country is home to some very fine vineyards and wineries, and the best way to see this region is with one of the California wine limo excursions. One company that offers luxury (in either a Lincoln Town Car or SUV stretch limousine) is Mendo Wine. Located in the town of Mendocino, this excursion company prides itself on creating excursions that are enjoyable and tailored to your tastes. Each excursion day starts at 10:00 am, and the limo excursion will stop at four to five wineries as time allows. There is a set list of wineries visited by Mendo Wine, and while visiting each one is not possible, you can make requests and they will be accommodated as possible.


The wine excursion limo will pick you up at any inn or hotel within Mendocino Village, or down to Navarro Bridge south. Driving to the wineries in the Mendocino area takes about 35 minutes from the village, and you will be able to see redwood forests along the coastline as you approach your destination. You can either join a group excursion, or reserve a private excursion for two in the Town Car or a private limo excursion for two. While enjoying the wineries of the Anderson Valley, you will be chauffeured from spot to spot, stopping for gourmet lunch at one of the wineries as well as enjoying bread and cheese along with your wine tastings.


Some of the wineries you'll discover while taking California wine limo excursions in the Mendocino area include the Goldeneye Winery, famous for the best premium Pinot Noir in the region and Greenwood Ridge Vineyards which produces all of its varietals in small batches (less than 7000 cases produced per year). The wineries selected to be on the excursions led by Mendo Wine are seen as the best examples of each of the wine types produced in the region - from the white wines that are made in Philo to the deep reds produced in the ridges above Anderson Valley.


A different spot to consider for your next wine adventure, Mendocino is a perfect place to discover new wines as well as enjoy the beauty of northern California. California wine limo excursions add a bit of luxury to your wine trip as well.

European Cuvee Red


We have our first semi-fruity, very unique wine made from the grapes of several different countries, namely France and Italy. The New European Union allows wineries to purchase the type of grapes best suited for the type of wine they want to craft at reasonable competitive price. As you know, we have problems finding the ever-popular Hungarian Ausbruch wines. Our European Cuvee red is a much less expensive alternative, and getting fairly close in taste. Our Cuvee is a lovely fruity red wine with some fire that finishes soft on the palate. Try this Red somewhat chilled. You can buy it online and enjoy. Perfect gift! ERCRS7NV ERCRS7NV

Scientists Say New Wine May be Effective Eczema Treatment


Germans scientists have turned their talents to the world of gastronomy and produced seaweed wine - which, in addition to its epicurean delight, will apparently help improve eczema. While we can't vouch for its success at your next dinner party, we can appreciate its benefits to the skin - although a shielding lotion may be a more appropriate external eczema treatment.

What does seaweed have to offer? It has long been considered a 'super food' - fat-free, low calorie, and full of vital minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, iron, iodine and sodium. In fact, some seaweed contains those minerals in the same ratios and concentrations found in human blood.

In addition to nourishing the body, one of the most important health benefits of seaweed is its ability to remove radioactive strontium and other heavy metals from the body. Whole brown seaweed, such as is used in seaweed wine, contains alginic acid which binds with the toxins in the intestines and carries them out of the system - preventing them from being eliminated through the skin, as is the case with eczema flare-ups.

If you don't fancy the wine, you might try adding seaweed to your diet in other forms. It can be found in most health food stores, or those that sell ingredients for Japanese food. You can add strips of it to soup, use it to make a soup broth, or eat it dried as a snack. The red algae seaweed, such as nori, agar-agar, and Irish moss are also very good for you. Nori is the seaweed used to wrap sushi, but Gaelic people also mix it with flour to make bread. Agar-agar is a gel used as a base in many Japanese desserts, and dried Irish moss is most often used in relishes, breads, soups and fritters.

In addition to shoring up your diet with seaweed and other healthy foods, the skin also requires protection from harsh chemicals and other external toxins if you want to avoid eczema flare-ups. Hundreds of dermatologists are now recommending a good shielding lotion as an effective external eczema treatment, although, who knows, if seaweed wine gets really popular we may soon be shopping for our body care products at the local vineyard.

Are You Describing Wine or Your Future Wife?

Fri, 20 Oct 2006 10:25:35 PDT
A hefty old guy on the golf course, or a Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Reine des Bois 2004? “A powerhouse for the vintage . . . marvelously balanced despite its weight.” Wine reviewers have a knack for description. The examples—hilarious and often outlandish—are seemingly endless.
