Tangled in a tree with a crystal glass.

Tangled in a tree with a crystal glass.

Dear friends and other interesting creatures,

Last night, I opened a bottle of wine, very Shirley Valentine I was. My husband came home and gave me a strange look. Apparently coming home to me drinking wine is a new thing. Well, it is…. and I quite liked it!

Last winter I had the wonderful opportunity to visit the McGregor, Robertson and Bonnievale area in the Cape. One of the many wine farms I visited was the Van Loveren Wine Estate. What drew me in, was the stories that surrounded the estate. I’m a sucker for a story, do read it over HERE.

I was thrilled when I received a case of Tangled Tree for my enjoyment, and an e-mail offering one of my loyal readers a taste of the tangled also! I was so inspired that I recorded the following, <insert my voice here> which holds the answer to a box being delivered to your home.

Clearly the “plastic” the very un-green (learning to be eco friendly I promise!) me called the packaging, is not plastic. ~~Hides head in shame.~~

…. and I quote:

PET, or polyethyline terephthalate, is an unbreakable thermal polymer that is also up to80% lighter than glass. This makes wine in PET bottles ideal for consumption in the outdoors, allowing wine lovers to carry the bottles along easily and safely on hikes or forpicnics.
It is completely recyclable.
The manufacturing process of these bottles has a significantly lighter carbon footprint (up to 75% less) than glass bottles.
The cartons used to transport the wine are also completely recyclable.

The best part is that because the packaging is so ultra cool, it loves to travel to all the weird and wonderful places you do…. and I know where some of you go…. #justsaying

In order to have a box of Tangled Tree delivered to your home, answer this simple question in the comment section. Please ensure I have your e-mail address to arrange delivery. Entries in by Sunday morning please, so that you too can enjoy end of the month salty crack… in wine form. 🙂

My question to you: Which wine did I open and spoke about in my sound cloud recording?

I wish you a crystal glass,

Wenchy

You make it sound yummy. I’m a big white wine drinker…but to be honest I’ve never tried this wine because of thr packaging so will have to rethink that now that I know it’s so green.

Tropical Salvignon Blanc. Drink in a white wine glass. The smaller of the wine glasses, that is. However if you like it a lot you can drink it in a big glass.
