Happy Hour: Protos Ribera de Duero

September 19, 2007

According to Life & Style magazine, the latest diet trend in Hollywood doesn't involve loading up on carbs or eating in the zone. It's much simpler and in my opinion, much more fabulous. It's the Red Wine Diet and the secret to Jessica Simpson's weight transformation. Lucky for me, I love red wine and already drink it on a regular basis! If you want to give this new diet a try and need a wonderful red, why not try Spain's Protos Ribera de Duero? It's fun to experiment with new wines from lesser known regions. With its velvety finish, complex aromas, and dark cherry color, this wine pairs nicely with a small portion of steak, a carving of lean pork, or slice of pizza.

Huh? She's said her weight loss was from following the Five Factor guy's diet and exercise program. The article says she drinks one glass once a week, and that the Red Wine Diet "expert" says she COULD drink even more, as prescribed in his diet plan. Doesn't sound like she's following this Red Wine Diet at all.

Delicious! I love spanish reds, especially the full-bodied ones with nice tannins. I call total BS on the Jessica Simpson thing though, just another item to sell magazines.
