Size: 750ml - Bottle
We blended Pinot Noir and Chambourcin grapes to create a medium-bodied base for this sweet, spiced treat. Aromas and flavors of anise, cinnamon, clove and nutmeg are revealed in each pour.
Now, use our Sassy Heron Spiced Wine to make our Holiday Mulled Wine- great for holiday parties, or a wintry night in front of the fireplace.
In traditional European culture, this sassy concoction is heated to make Glogg, Vin Chaud or Glühwein—a familiar winter cup of cheer that will warm you up from the inside out. A great winter and holiday treat.
