Wines of Morocco can help banish January blues

If you are reading this page I’m assuming you are not on the dry for the month of January, a practice that rather baffles me given the depression that often settles on people in this darkest of months.

I’m afraid I simply couldn’t do without the cheering presence of a bottle of wine at my dinner table in January and personally believe that it should be a requirement for anyone prone to melancholia at this time of year.

My suggestions this week are all red wines but red wines with a streak of freshness to keep them lively and to cheer up your palate as well as the cold dark evenings.
