Over the years, there has been extensive media coverage about the health benefits of wine, particularly red wine. "Red wine produced from red grapes are well-known for their potential heart health benefits," says Pauline Chan, senior dietitian at The Nutrition Place. "A lot of research has also shown that flavanoids and other anti-oxidants present in red wine could play an active role in reducing the risk of heart diseases, if taken in moderation,So while red wine does have beneficial qualities, the important thing to remember is that, moderation is key (one drink a day for women and one to two drinks a day for men). Otherwise, its health benefits can be overshadowed by excessive intake of the drink. In Philippine they also produce all kind of red wine locally and export. In Philippines, with a population of 91 million, has traditionally been a beer consuming country, due to domestic breweries such as San Miguel Corporation and Asia Brewery. However, there has been a noticeable shift to wine, as there has been an increase in wine appreciation and consumption in the past years. Ten to 15 per cent of this market (mostly the upper and middle income class) is Australian producers’ target market and this demographic is primarily located in the two main Philippine cities of Manila and Cebu.
