I believe I read years ago that there is a high end development somewhere in the south. There are houses built that are surrounded with vineyards. I always wanted to go see it. Anyone else know about this place?
I was shopping with a female friend many years ago and I grabbed a La Fuerza and put it in the cart. She looked around then grabbed it and put it back on the shelf and said "Don't even think about buying that"
Ocoa Bay (https://ocoabay.com/en/) is on my list of places to visit. I've never seen their wine for sale on the island.
Yes, the southwest is known for being the grape growing region in the DR. I'm sure you see the raisons from these grapes in the supermarket. I have seen the ads for Ocoa Bay wines on Telemicro here in NJ and met a person on Clubhouse during the pandemic from Samana that was developing a fine wine in the DR. I've never tried the ones listed above but you do see them in most colmados.
Bahia Príncipe RSJ used their wine as the current table wine.
The qualification for being the table wine in any AI is to have the cheapest net price with delivery included. And that goes for many so called 5 Star Hotels in Punta Cana............
They're not going to that approach. Since their beginnings, their focus is to you visit them and buy from them without any middleman or distributor.
Has anyone on here visited it? It looks lovely! If no one has, I will go and give a report.
And to keep this on the subject posted, La Fuerza is about as fine as Mogen David.....and Cherycol cough syrup (if you remember that!) But I might just try it as cooking wine. Never thought of that.
Years ago I was invited to a young adult Catholic event in Jamao - seated at the head table, I don't know why, There was dinner and dancing amongst these 18,19, 20-25 year olds. All very sweet and innocent. At the end of the night they crowned the king and the queen. And then they crowned another queen. Me! I guess I was the oldest queen of all (thank you very much!)
But before the lights turned out, they passed around 8 ounce cups and filled them to the brim with La Fuerza.
I put it to my lips and could not go one millimeter further.
