Who You Callin’ a Wino?

Holy Vino Wine Jellies

Let us pray.

Dear Lord,

Please forgive the creators of Holy Vino wine jellies. They’ve got us hooked on the local, handcrafted spreadables that pair with cheese and crackers like a blessed trinity.

They taste like treats from heaven. Mix the Pineapple Sage Chardonnay with a heavy Irish cheddar or goat brie. Add some kick to your turkey or pimento cheese sammie with the Spicy Sangiovese, or whip up an adult version of PB&J.

There are five core flavors (including a tangy Plum Port and refreshingly light Pinot Grigio), but these geniuses create custom jellies by request. And they plan to keep tempting us with their soon-to-come blog — a collection of delectable recipes and previews of special flavors like strawberry fig and cognac.

At seven bucks a jar, it’s practically sinful.

Amen.
