What is Clean Wine?
A few years ago after a round of Whole30 I tried to introduce wine back into my diet. The results were not good. I felt an incredible sugar rush, had insomnia, joint pain and a headache every time I drank. So for me it was just not worth it anymore. A friend heard my story and brought over some Scout & Cellar Clean Crafted Wines for me to try. I did so with great hesitation because I didn’t want to feel gross the next day. I was thrilled that I felt absolutely no side effects and the wines were delicious. I ordered them from someone and they were delivered to my home for about a year. Then one day when I was ordering a pretty large amount of Rosé for my daughter’s wedding showers I thought “I could absolutely sell this”. I was telling everyone about it anyway including all of my Whole30 clients when they were ready to reintroduce. I also was teaching Whole30 cooking classes at Williams Sonoma and was sharing my passion with them as well. So I asked about becoming a Consultant and signed up. A very minimal investment got me a business kit and four bottles of wine so win win. Here we are not even two years later and I’ve sold over $70,00 worth of wine. Why? Because that is how strongly I believe in this company. Once you do the research it is alarming how many chemicals, added sulfites, pesticides and gobs of sugar go into commercial wines. No wonder I felt like crap. So what is in our 100% organic wines? Grapes. NO added sugar, NO added sulfites, NO chemicals, food coloring or pesticides- how do we know? We lab test…twice. Doesn’t pass, doesn’t got sold. It’s as simple as that.
Do we own the vineyards? No- we partner with small vineyards all over the world who agree to our strict standards and submit to lab testing. Think about it. If you buy Organic wine from say Whole Foods- how do you know the pesticides from the vineyard downwind didn’t blow onto those grapes. And actually some vineyards have one section that is organic and the rest of the vineyard is not so the spray is most certainly getting on those crops. The only way to know for sure what you are putting in your body is to lab test.
I invite you to taste and feel the difference. We release new wines each month, we are constantly scouting the world for new partners and since the company is barely three years old, we are just getting started.
Check out all of the options here and don’t forget to put in the state where the wines are headed as each state has different selections due to liquor laws. And please reach out if you need recommendations because I might have tasted quite a few by now :)
