Wine is popularly known for representing sophistication, elegance, class … But another of the concepts linked to its moderate consumption is health. Yes, all those gossip that say that a glass of wine a day is healthy hide great truths.

And, precisely, the popularization of wine coolers in homes, wineries and restaurants is part of society’s response to the fact that wine is part of a healthy diet.

Wine and Mediterranean diet: a perfect tandem

The Mediterranean diet is known to be one of the healthiest in the world. And wine, according to nutrition professionals, is also part of it. And, above all, red wine stands out as the one that brings the most benefits to health .

Thus, at the Wine and Health 2017 world congress , which was held in La Rioja, it was even stated that wine is responsible for up to 25% of all the benefits that the Mediterranean diet contributes to people’s health . A not inconsiderable figure. Of course, linked to the responsible consumption of this precious Mediterranean drink.

Although each body is different, professionals tend to agree that the ideal consumption is one drink a day, or two at the most .
