This year has proven to be an emotional roller-coaster. If you’re anything like me, then I’m sure you’ve had more virtual happy hours or Zoom wine downs than one can count. But honestly, you don’t have to be in the VIP section of Club Quarantine to indulge in a nice glass of Riesling or to appreciate an aromatic white wine. Perhaps a Rosé, which is my go-to drink of choice especially, for a nightcap.
Besides enjoyment, wine can be used in other capacities, including cooking, serving as a natural fruit and vegetable cleaner, fertilizing your garden, and a fruit trap to help eliminate annoying flies. Most importantly, drinking wine can have surprising health benefits as well!

Spanning across the globe from South Africa to the U.S., France and beyond take a look at these Black-owned wine brands awaiting to be uncorked. Trust me. They deserve a place on your shelf!
