The Clambake Wines: Giving Back to First Responders

check out The Clambake wines at  www.ripelifewines.com.  The wines are delicious and perfect for upcoming warm weather. But the best part is, right now, for every case of wine purchased (12 bottles), the company will send two complimentary bottles of wine to the customer’s  health care worker of choice to thank them for their service.
Also, the company is offering free shipping to everyone. As you know wine is heavy and expensive to ship, but founder Mary McAuley is determined to do what she can to keep people home and out of the stores to help flatten the curve.
As for the wines themselves, McAuley’s inspiration was simple – she was a beach obsessed sommelier (and French Culinary Institute grad) tasked with picking the wines for her friends annual clambake on the Jersey shore.  When she couldn’t find exactly what she was looking for, she rolled up her sleeves and made them herself for the next year with premium Mendocino grapes. The result?  A bright, unoaked Chardonnay that is light, clean and smooth, and a delicate, fruit-forward floral rose. While they conjure up images of shoreside seafood feast, they are perfect to sip wherever you are, as an aperitif or with a wide variety of warm weather dishes Mary can suggest.
