The Benefits of French Wine

Not only does wine have a delightful taste, but it also has many benefits for your health! A diet rich with wine, especially red wine, is known to have health benefits for your heart and longevity. Here at Jonathan’s Ristorante, an Italian restaurant in Huntington, we have a large selection of wine and a great variety of delectable French wines. Visit us and enjoy a glass of wine; there are more health benefits than you think.

Wines of the South West Region of France

The residents of the Sud-Ouest France, known as the Gers region, are of the longest living people in France and the benefits of their local wines contribute to their longevity. The local wines of this region such as Madiran, Cahors, Bergerac, and Saint-Mont are very rich in procyanidins. These are antioxidants that provide many heart-healthy benefits such as:

    • Preventing cancer and cardiovascular diseases.
    • Preventing blood clots.
  • Boosting the health of your endothelium (tissue lining your heart and blood vessels).

The wines of the Sud-Ouest region have more procyanidins than most Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot.

Benefits of Wine

Along with the benefits that procyanidins provide, there are many more health benefits that come with drinking wine. Here are a few of the positive advantages that come with a moderate consumption of wine:

    • Promotes longevity.
    • Reduces the risk of heart attacks.
    • Protects against heart disease.
    • Reduces risk of stroke.
  • Reduces chances of getting Type-2 Diabetes.
