From the Fearless Flyer: “Benefactor Wines are currently only available in our stores that sell alcohol outside of California, with the exception of the Benefactor Shiraz, which is also not available in the District of Columbia.* Don’t be fooled by the ossified creatures adorning the bottles, each varietal in this collection of wines from Benefactor Cellars South Eastern Australia, is full of life, with plenty of body to go along with its solid structure. A recent journey to the wine lands of Australia’s south eastern region yielded a veritable treasure trove of excellent-quality “juice” just waiting to be blended and bottled. We didn’t hesitate. We gathered samples, blended the wines and shipped them to our wine panel for approval, then bottled the final results and shipped them here as quickly as possible – that Pacific ocean is big! We have three varietals: Shiraz, a deep purple and garnet-colored wine with ripe berry and cherry notes and spicy tones on the palate. Chardonnay, straw-colored with peach and citrus flavors, highlighted by vanilla oak. Cabernet Sauvignon, rich red in color with black currant and berry fruit and well-integrated oak flavors. Three varietals, one price – $4.99*, every day, a scary-good value for these toothsome wines. * Benefactor wines are $5.99 in Ohio. Alcohol availability & price may vary due to state laws, taxes, shipment fees & other such stuff. (If we could, we would…)”
