Wine of the Day: Tomasello Winery Pomegranate Wine

Behind the Burner: Wine of the Day: Tomasello Winery Pomegranate Wine

I usually prefer white wines, but for a friend's birthday, I decided to switch things up and try a dark colored fruit wine. Although I had low expectations, I was pleasantly surprised by Tomasello Winery's newest fruit flavored creation. Tomasello's pomegranate wine proves grapes aren't the only fruit to make sweet wine.

Made from 100% pomegranate, this wine incorporates bold and tangy flavors with a pronounced fruity aroma. The wine is fermented in small quantities and cold conditions to lock in the unique flavor with the added health bonus of antioxidants. Tip: Try using this wine to make a pomegranate martini.

Tomasello Pomegranate Martini:
3 parts Tomasello Pomegranate
1 part Grand Marnier or Triple Sec
1 part Orange Flavored Vodka
Splash of lime

1. Shake all ingredients in a cocktail shaker filled with ice and strain into a chilled martini glass.
