Carlo Rossi Sweet Red, A Matter of Taste

Tweet

Wine can be a simple or a bewildering beverage. It is the drink of celebration and ceremony, often seen to promote gracious living. At first considered a gift from the gods, wine has long been considered a drink of choice for the elite. Wine has also been used throughout history for its medical purposes too, and there is a certain romance associated with a bottle of wine. A good bottle of wine is the end result of thousands of years of practice, experimentation and tradition.

As a symbol of status and celebration, wine-drinking has become part of many Filipino festivities and has become evident in Philippine lifestyle. While it has become a common sight, one may note that a hurdle to wine drinking among Filipinos is the preference for sweetness.

“We Pinoys are known to have sweet tooth. We love sweet delicacies and it is apparent in our usual practices like cooking. For instance, most of us enjoy our spaghetti because it’s sweet. There’s no wonder we also look for that sweetness in drinks, even in wines. Globally also, there is a growing preference for sweet wines,” shares Von de Torres, Managing Director of Emperador Distillers, the company that distributes the Carlo Rossi brand of red and white wines in the Philippines.

The market of wine drinkers has been growing and can be somehow attributed to the openness of females to wine drinking because of its perceived health benefits. However, the preference for sweet wine is dominant since they find dry wines bitter. To satisfy this, the company brings to the market, from Carlo Rossi, the No.1 Imported Wine in the Philippines…Rossi Sweet Red.

To suit the quality and authenticity of a red wine that fits the Filipino taste, Rossi Sweet Red provides a well balanced palate, complemented by fresh fruit flavors and a velvety soft-finish.

Crafted from grapes grown in California’s sun drenched vineyards, Rossi Sweet Red is soft and sweet, with layers of vanilla and flavors of bright cherry and wild raspberry. It is guaranteed to burst with flavor and aroma with the right alcohol content, so Rossi Sweet Red isn’t just grape juice packed in a wine bottle.

Furthermore, Rossi Sweet Red innovates a creative means to drink wines: Have it on the rocks. The ice complements the rich, deep red color and allows the drinker to enjoy its sweet taste in the smoothest way possible. “This is a perfect fit for a tropical country such as ours,” says de De Torres.

The status and symbol that wine-drinking connote still remains but overall, the most important thing is still satisfaction.

Discover a different kind of sweetness from Rossi Sweet Red Wine, best enjoyed on the rocks.

Is your family in the dark?

Do you have relative who suffers from glaucoma? If so, beware. You may have the incurable disease too.

Filipino families are unaware that glaucoma can also be passed down from one generation to the next. A major cause of bilateral permanent blindness in the Philippines, glaucoma damages optic nerves, which connect the eye to brain.

“Indeed, family history puts into light the hereditary and genetic aspect of the incurable glaucoma. Glaucoma attacks not only one patient but also brings in the possibility of spreading permanent blindness to their own loved ones,” said Dr. Jose Ma. “Biboy” Martinez, one of a few ophthalmologist in the country specializing in glaucoma care and the vice-president of the Philippine Glaucoma Society (PGS).

Inside the eyeball, fluids maintain the constant eye pressure. When fluids don’t drain properly, intraocular eye pressure occurs, which in the long run could lead to the incurable glaucoma. Other risk factors of glaucoma are eye pressure, previous eye injury, chronic steroid use, age over 45, diabetes mellitus and race.

The chance of a relative of a known glaucoma patient developing the disease is difficult to determine. The pattern of inheritance tends to be unpredictable. Suffice it to say that your chances of developing the glaucoma are higher if you have a family member with established primary glaucoma.

But relatives usually are unaware of the occurrence of glaucoma. This is when frequent trips to your eye doctor can truly show its necessity.

Glaucoma is mostly a disease of the elderly. However, a small proportion of glaucoma occurs at birth (congenital) or at an early age (juvenile). These patients carry a higher risk for blindness because of their longer life span.

“With knowing that permanent blindness runs in the family, the Philippine Glaucoma Society with Allergan will vigorously do everything we can to get rid of glaucoma once and for all. Of course, everything starts with the patient’s initiative. Pay a visit to your eye doctor regularly,” adds Dr. Martinez.

Although glaucoma does not display any conspicuous signs or symptoms, for families with case of glaucoma, watch out for these usual occurrences amongst patients: halos, blurry or cloud vision, vision decreases, severe eye pain, extreme sensitivity to light, excessive blinking and runny eye, crossed or out-turned eyes, one eye becoming larger than the other, nausea and headache.

The Philippine Glaucoma Society is the country’s leader in glaucoma care and detection. In partnership with globally recognize multi-specialty care firm Allergan, PGS launched on World Glaucoma Week a series of projects, activities and campaigns to increase awareness about the disease to local communities and to therefore stop glaucoma in its tracks.

There is no cure yet for glaucoma, but with the support of your family, proper medication, regular eye check-ups, early detection and proper eye care, you can get by it with vision still intact.
