Wine drinkers rejoice! An Australian doctor claims to have produced the world’s healthiest wine. Dr Philip Norrie who is based in Sydney Australia, claims to have developed a wine with resveratrol levels 100 times greater than those found traditionally. Resveratrol is a compound which is found naturally in the skin of grapes and is mainly responsible for the medicinal properties of wine and its claims to lower chances of a heart attack. Resveratrol helps maintain blood flow to the arteries by cleaning fatty deposits called atherosclerotic plaque that have a tendency to stick to the arteries and block them. A tasteless and odorless compound, which doesn’t affect the bouquet or the flavour of the wine. Resveratrol effectively helps clean the arteries as you drink the wine.

Currently two wines are being marketed by Dr Norrie; a chardonnay and a shiraz. The wines available in the Australian market under the name of “Wine Doctor” are endowed with resveratrol levels of 100 mg/L. This is about 70 times of that found in normal “whites” and about 15-20 times that of a normal “red”. Though certainly beneficial in the long run, Dr. Norrie stresses that benefits will only realized through “moderate consumption”.
