If you are a wine enthusiast then you have probably spent a good deal of time watching wine videos from JustJess, a segment on the WineChannelTV hosted by that anchorwoman Jess Altieri of Wine Harvest. One of the most recent episodes talked about how the alcoholic beverage industry has had a flourishing symbiosis with many athletics events, there is virtually no game or sporting event that doesn't have liquor served. Even now, more and more sports fans are making the ultimate switch when watching their favorite basketball game or NFL playoff: from beer to that good bottle of wine.

Playing with the idea of having an official wine sponsor for your NFL favorite may be a far cry but never the less a good bottle of wine can be characterized in the same manner as a good NFL team. Each NFL contender who makes it to the Super Bowl brings their own flavor, largely influenced by its team members and where they come from. Wine is the same; your blend of particular flavor is determined by its additives, the grape used to make it and which part of the world it comes from.

Think about it for a second and consider the possibilities. ...
... If you had to compare your favorite NFL team to a wine blend what would it be? Personally, I think a good bottle of 2004 Vigne Nuove Cerasuolo Rose is the best wine to describe the ultimate super athlete team, the Cincinnati Bengals. Fierce, agile and a testament of ultimate strength, with the same qualities that is often described when it comes to Cerasuolo Rosé, this grown up wine is exactly what I would relate the Bengals to.
