I'm Sweet on Sweet Pea Apple Wine

I'm guessing both non-wine drinkers and beginning wine sippers (like myself) will find this Wine Wednesday selection to pleasing to their palates, especially because Sweet Pea apple wine is flavored with natural blackberry flavors!  It's bottled at the Sweet Pea Winery in Mattawa, WA, and they use local, Washington apples.  

According to the Sweet Pea website (read more), this wine tastes as, "pleasing as cobbler and refreshing as a cool glass of Riesling on a warm summer evening, Sweet Pea is ripe with golden delicious apple flavors, hints of fruit sweetness and a crisp, clean finish."  That's also where I learned that this company makes a strawberry apple wine and a peach apple wine...that sounds all sorts of yummy and summery!  

Anyway, I was surprised to read that the alcohol content for this wine is only 7.8%, compared to 12% or 13% for your typical bottle of wine.  Overall this was a fun wine to try, especially for only $2.99!
Cheers!
