It’s a celebration of love and all things fabulously French this month at H-E-B — and that means it’s SALE time! Starting February 5th (and lasting thru the 18th), take 10% off all French wines & top sparkling wines you can find on the shelf.
We can all be French at heart when drinking these revered wines. Although intimidating at times, H-E-B has an incredible stock and a knowledgeable staff (like my sommelier Sean!) to help answer any questions. France, after all, is where it all begins…
Many of the bargain-conscious Bordeauxs are soft, food-friendly with nice flavor profiles. If you like big reds…Cabernets — they are always a good bet. The French are also known for their champagne.
Watch our short video above to see which ones Sean and I settled on. I can tell you this: He selected two wines that are must-do’s for those interested in learning more about French wines. See below!
