🍷✨ This National Drink Wine Day and join me in making 2024 the year of wine joy! 🎉 Let’s venture beyond the familiar and step out of our wine comfort zones. 💫 It might mean splurging a bit more, but trust me, the journey is worth it! 😉

Don’t know what to drink? 🌟 I’ve got you with all the research (aka tasting) you need to discover your next joyful pour!

Let’s kick things off with a true gem I found BY THE GLASS at Swift & Son’s Chicago! 🍇🌆 The Jean-Louis Chave Selection Saint-Joseph Offerus 2020 (Syrah) from Rhone, France. 🇫🇷✨

This wine isn’t just a drink; it’s a well-balanced five-course award winning gourmet meal! 🍽️💖 The palate is rich, fleshy, exciting with flavors like black cherries, smoked meat, baking spices, and earthy undertones. 🌿🍒✨

Follow for more wine joy 🚀✨

Protip: The wine is $32 by the glass at Swift & Son’s Chicago and worth it for the ambience and killer steaks. Or order the bottle at Wine.com $41 Binny’s (Illinois) $32
