Long before Tomasello Winery learned about the healthy benefits of eating blueberries, they were making wine from this abundant fruit. They have perfected the winemaking technique, producing a popular wine style of 100% New Jersey Blueberries.

The explosion of health related data released from the North American Blueberry Council. Studies have shown that the "Miracle Berry" has proven to aid in night vision, slow the aging process and combat cancer with their high levels of antioxidants. The following excerpts were reported in the June 1999 issue of Prevention Magazine by Holly McCord, RD.:

"If you add one food to your diet this year, make it blueberries.”

Dr. Molly Wagster, PHD a Health Scientist Administrator with the NIA's Neuroscience and Neuropsychology of Aging Program states, "The exciting finding from this study {the effect of blueberry consumption and aging} is the potential reversal of some age-related impairments in both memory and motor coordination, especially with blueberry supplements.“

Tomasello's Blueberry wine took the spotlight in a wine and antioxidants study, where Dr. Amy Howell of the Rutgers Blueberry Research Center claims, "The wine was found to be very high in cancer-fighting antioxidant levels." In fact, the levels surpass those found in the traditional healthy red wines.

All of the reported benefits excite our loyal customers and may entice adventurous wine lovers all over the world. With or without health benefits, blueberry wine drinkers agree, it tastes great! Try the blueberry wine as an aperitif, with dessert, or add to ice cream! What a treat!
