BORRACHA Wine Wipes/MARIAN MEDICAL CENTER: For the month of October, Borracha will be donating $2 for every $25 Borracha “CHEERS TO A CURE” set, which includes a limited-edition Syrah blend paired with the line’s signature Wine Wipes, to The Breast Cancer Care Program at Marian Medical Center in Santa Maria, CA. The Borracha “CHEERS TO A CURE” blend (Syrah and Zinfandel) is produced and bottled by Ranchero Cellars in Paso Robles, and features dark fruit aromas with plum and black raspberry leading to exotic spice, pepper, and toasty oak notes. The palate is plush and smooth, with a burst of fruit reminiscent of pie cherries and a kiss of sweet oak that lingers on the finish. Wine Wipes are made for red wine lovers, and the proprietary blend of stain-removing and teeth-protecting ingredients will help you smile pretty, not purple, and won’t interfere with the taste of your wine! The Breast Cancer Care Program at Marian Medical Center provides free medical services to patients in need including mammograms, dietary counseling, exercise regimen, follow-up care and support groups, and also helps low-income patients with basic living expenses such as rent and utility bills.   WineWipes.com // MarianMedicalCenter.org
