Going dry for Dry July

Anyone who knows me knows there are few things I appreciate more than a great glass of New Zealand made wine.

Over my 50+ years on this earth I have become a, you could say, connoisseur of fine wines but I regret this love has possibly become my detriment.

For the month of July (31 days, 744 hours, 44,640 minutes to be exact) I will be putting aside the pinot noirs, sauvignon blancs, cabernets and my newly rekindled connect with the legendary Mateus Rose, for a very good cause.

Dry July directly benefits adult cancer patients with real and tangible change by providing funds to create better environments and support networks for patients and their families. The project also raises awareness of drinking habits and the value of a balanced healthy lifestyle.

In support of my sacrifice, any contributions you may be able to offer would be greatly appreciated.

Life is too short to drink bad wine, so true...  and I work too hard so my wine cupboard or the environments I choose to eat at and socialise in always sport a good cross section of NZ reds. If they are not great then it's a bonus as I get to have an alcohol free day! Here's hoping I don't run into any temptations next month!
