Wine made from 100% Organic grapes… sign me up. Avaline is a brand created by Cameron Diaz & Katherine Power who partner with winemakers around the world that prioritize sustainable farming (100% organic grapes with no synthetic pesticides or insecticides), have no residual sugar present and have no unwanted additives. I came across their wine initially grocery shopping at Sprouts and now have become an affiliate for them. The wines I have tried so far have been very good.
Today I open up their Beaujolais. Beaujolais is made of 100% Gamay grape. What makes this wine so popular is that the grapes are harvested, bottled right after the fermentation process and sold in the stores the same year it is harvested. It is meant to be a young wine that you can drink right away. Traditionally, it is meant to celebrate a successful end of the harvest. This wine is always released around November (thanksgiving time in the US).
Transformation comes up towards the end of the episode and I emphasize the importance of healing, growing and how our experiences have affected us to be the way we are. Understanding how your environment and experiences shaped you is how you can understand what you need to heal and grow from in order to move forward and live the life you want to live. It takes work to heal and grow but I promise you the benefits of that work you put in is so worth it.
Tune in now as I get into this natural wine brand, talk about healing and transforming while trying out this Beaujolais!
