It boosts the immune system, increases bone density, contains antioxidants, reduces your risk of stroke & heart disease, helps lower cholesterol, reduce risk of type 2 diabetes & cancer, it improves cognitive function, but most importantly it ensures moms don’t officially make the transition to full on Cruella de Vil status! The benefits of wine are vast, but what about those vines?

Our Ladies Night Out at Mon Ami Winery
Mon Ami Winery
Address: 3845 E. Wine Cellar Rd. Port Clinton OH, 43452
Phone: 419-797-4445
Website: https://monamiwinery.com/
Cost: Wine Tasting Flight is $5 for 4 or $1.50 per single taste
We encouraged each other to step outside our wine comfort zones & opted for all four tasting flights. My wine comfort zone has always been a dry red, but thanks to our LNO at the winery I found a couple semi-sweets & dry whites that I actually enjoy.
And what’s a Ladies Night Out without some light shopping? Everyone needs to go home with a souvenirs!
And then we stopped off at the restaurant for Happy Hour ($5 glasses of wine & discounted appetizers) & dinner
We had a lovely experience at Mon Ami & are looking forward to trying out some other local wineries this month.
Drink local & responsibly, Ohio!
