Confession time.... I like to drink. What I mean is I enjoy adult beverages on occasion and love to sip a nice glass of wine, so I didn't hesitate when I was offered some samples of flipflop wines to review. By samples I mean 2 full bottles to try and share. Now please keep in mind I am by no means a wine expert, but it is something I enjoy.
Product: flipflop wines
Product Price: $7 each and can be ordered from Underdog Wine Merchants
Product Description: flipflop wines are a newly launched collection of great tasting wines that don't break the bank. The collection includes Chardonnay, Riesling, Pinot Grigio, Moscato, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Pinot Noir wines.
My Review: I was provided with a bottle of Riesling and Pinot Grigio. I prefer white wine, so I was thrilled with these selections. Riesling is one of my favorite varieties and I did prefer it to the Pinot Grigio. The Riesling had a wonderful aroma and it was not as sweet as a lot of Rieslings are. So if you usually avoid the sweetness of Rieslings this would be one to taste. It blended well with the pork roast of our Easter Sunday dinner and left no after taste. The Pinot Grigio was light, dry and also left no after taste. I'm a big fan of wine bottle labels and the flipflop wines have a cute label that makes you want to pick a bottle up and take to your summer picnics.
I love that these wines have a very reasonable suggested retail price of $7. What's even better is that flipflop wines have partnered with Soles4Souls Inc., the international shoe charity dedicated to providing free footwear to those in need. This partnership will provide one pair of flip-flop sandals for each bottle of flipflop wine purchased (up to 100,000 pairs for the first 100,000 bottles sold, where promotion is legal. You can learn more about Soles4Souls at www.soles4souls.org/. You can also visit the flipflop wines Facebook page to learn more about the company and the wine varieties they offer.
Disclosure: I was provided samples of these products to review at no charge. No further compensation was received. All opinions are 100% mine.
