I would like to take a moment out of my regularly scheduled programming to enlighten you all with something fairly majestic that came into my life last weekend.
This may look like an ordinary glass of wine:
But it is, in fact, Armenian pomegranate wine.
What’s that, you ask?
“…goes back to at least Biblical times, when Noah established the first vineyard…”
That’s right, everyone. This wine is allegedly older than the New Testament.
That’s some heavy stuff.

And who knew that Noah retired after a hard lifetime of ark building to the Biblical equivalent of Napa?
I always knew I liked him.
If you’re observing Ash Wednesday (and not fasting), you may want to pick some of this stuff up- it’s only fitting.
Oh man… pomegranate is one of those fruits that give me a gag reflex… my boss chews gum flavored like it- I’m shuddering right now!
Sorry… not to be a downer…
I’m with Amy. Sorry.
Look, I expected this from Amy, but from YOU, Katie? For shame. 😉
I LOOOOVE pomegranate! I didn’t know they made wine out of it. I’m officially on a mission to find some.
Do it! It’s kind of sweet, definitely not a standard red wine, but it’s kind of hilarious at the same time!
Oh fun!! I’m always on the look out for new ways to enjoy a glass of wine :).

I think Katie and Amy are crazy (well, I thought that before…). This looks awesome.
Haha! Yesss, someone’s on my side! 😉
