Wine is always been something that I drink on a rare occasions, but when I do I always choose a South Carolina wine. Mostly because I love muscadine wine. My mom used to make it in small batches when I was growing up so it was one of the things that just kind of stuck with me. What do you think of our list? Tell us in the comments below!
