This fall I treated my guests to some Wicked Red HobNob wine, and it was tasty! We enjoy wine in this house and even more enjoy to share it with others.
HobNob’s was recently recognized in “Wine Fast Track,” by Cheers Magazine,
This wicked blend of Grenache, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Pinot Noir, is sure to be enjoyed by guests. With hints of roasted coffee, mocha, toasted hazelnut aromas and a zing of orange zest and orange flower we enjoyed the 2010 vintage and plan on keeping a lookout for it the next time we host a party.
I don’t always like wine with screw caps, I have had my share of not so good picks this way but Wicked Red was a nice surprise making it easy to enjoy. My guests and husband enjoyed it and we plan on having it again in the feature.
Wicked Red retails for $9.99 . They are sold in the U.S. by Deutsch Family Wine & Spirits. Other varietals include: Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Shiraz. For more information, please visit www.hobnobwines.com, HobNob on Facebook or Twitter
For Entertaining Guests this season here is a wonderful recipe for punch. I made a small batch and it was amazing!
HOBNOB’S WICKED RED PUNCH
12 servings
1 750-ml bottle of HobNob Wicked Red
1½ cups spiced rum
2 cups freshly squeezed orange juice
2 tablespoons of orange zest
1 tablespoons ground ginger
1 tablespoons cinnamon
2 tablespoons simple syrup
1 lime, zested
Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and let sit, refrigerated for at least an hour before. If available, add one large block of ice to the bowl. Stir well before serving and garnish glass with a sugar rim and orange slice.
I hope you enjoy as much as we did! As always drink responsibly!

My Journey With Candida
Oh jeeze, I used to drink wine but since candida I don't drink anything like that. I miss having a glass of wine once in awhile though.

I grew up near a small restaurant called Hob Nob, they had great food but now wine. I will have to try this out, I like pairing a good wine with good food.
