Some may find red wines too intimidating or too much for their palate, which is why they might want something that’s lighter and sweeter.</p><p>“Jacob’s Creek, Australia’s number one bottled wine brand, has something for everybody even if you’re not a seasoned wine drinker. Cherry Red is breaking away from red wine expectations: it is semi-sweet, approachable, playful and it does not follow the codes of red wine. We believe it is a wonderful starter wine that fits well with Filipinos’ discerning taste,” said Jacob’s Creek brand executive Kurt Ducusin.</p><p>Jacob’s Creek Cherry Red is available at leading supermarkets and e-commerce sites and platforms with an SRP of P500 per bottle</p><div><strong>SUPERBOWLS OF CHINA&#x27;S KASALO MEALS</strong></div><div class="embed-wrap"><figure data-feedback="fb:likes,fb:comments"><img alt="Handout" src="https://sa.kapamilya.com/absnews/abscbnnews/media/2022/life/06/24/superbowls.jpg"/><figcaption><em>Handout</em></figcaption></figure></div><p><br/>&#x27;<br/>Casual dining restaurant Superbowls of China packages its favorites from the menu into Kasalo Meals good for 3.</p><p>The Kasalo Meals can be ordered as two sets with Pork Shanghai Rolls, Yang Chow Fried Rice, and Pepsi.
