Franklin Hill Vineyards celebrates the launch of its newest wine - THIN!
Franklin Hill Vineyards has the skinny on the newest thing in wine... and we wanted you to be the first to know... THIN is here!
Our new wine, THIN, is like nothing else you have ever tried before. We know you have a sweet tooth, so we found a way to offer all the sweet, without the guilt. THIN has about the same calories as a glass of dry red wine, but it is sweet to taste.
Not only do you get to indulge yourself in a great sweet treat, but you are also benefiting your body. Made from premium red grapes blended with Acai berry, it has all the benefits of drinking red wine. Red wines contain resveratrol, a polyphenol that reduces bad cholesterol and many other health benefits.
Now available at all of our locations and stop in and give it a try! We think you'll love it!
