Green Gifts under $25: Delish organic wine
Article or RSS item submitted by Ty Wenzel • Mar 15th, 2008 • Category: Green Me Baby!, Style for Less Dough | 15 views
Here are Chartreuse Chic, we try to accept the men in our lives the way they are. And so we recognize that as much as we’d like to dress them in some sexy organic jeans for the holidays, they’re really not that interested in such things. So when it comes to boys, we’re focusing on the big three: food, gadgets… and now booze!
The funny thing about Frog’s Leap wine is that I’ve actually had it a million times and never knew it was organic! In fact, years ago I even worked at one of those NY restaurants where you had to talk about wine like you understood it (honestly, who genuinely understands wine?) and even they didn’t know it was organic. Maybe that’s because the bottles only claim to be “responsibly farmed” to avoid any supposed stigma attached to being a CCOF certified organic vineyard (I guess in the wine world, it’s still not hip to be green.) Hey, I’m not complaining — the bottles I’ve had have poured tasty, tasty stuff, and when it comes to wine, that’s what really matters.
Frog’s Leap Zinfandel $24.20. Or better yet, snag some at your local wine shop (shipping in bulk = fewer resources!) Perfect to add some big flavor to a big night in.
p.s. Now, we learned a little last week about the difference between natural and USDA approved organic. It doesn’t look like Frog’s Leap has that later seal of approval, so read a little about their farming practices if you’re worried and decide if their version of organic rates high enough on your green meter. If only everyone were this forthcoming!
