What I’m Digging: Valenzano Cranberry Wine

Last year before visiting my mother in Southern New Jersey for the holidays, my family had a discussion about cranberry wine. My older sister suggest we try some at our next gathering. My mother purchased several bottles of Velenzano Red Cranberry Wine for us to try. The vineyard isn’t far from where my mother lives and she wanted to support someone local. We loved the wine!

This past holiday, my sister and I were at Mom’s once again and stopped into a local liquor store to purchase spirits for dinner. We came upon a display featuring Valenzano Red and White Cranberry Wines. We purchased a couple of bottles each.

My family enjoyed the wine at dinner, the Whit Cranberry Wine was our favorite. I was afraid it would be tart but it was just the opposite. It was sweet, but not sickeningly sweet like the Wild Vines wine cooler type wines.

Now, I’m no wine connoisseur, but I do know what I like. Mom does too because the next day she went back down to the liquor store and bought them out of all their cranberry wine. Besides having some in the house, we each received one as a holiday gift.
