What is Wine Wednesday? For those of you newbies, over on Twitter, the tweeters (is that what we're called?) have adopted this lovely hump day of the week as Wine Wednesday! Each week people tag their tweets with the hashtag #WineWednesday and it quickly becomes a trending topic. Wine Wednesday acts as a weekly celebration of wine. It is so fun! So over here on the Barefoot Republic, we just want to share some of our favorite tweets that happened in the past week from our Twitter friends! We hope you enjoy reading them as much as we enjoy talking to so many friends on Twitter everyday! Do you tweet? Say hi to us here. Without further ado.....this week's roundup:
Get Barefoot this Thanksgiving with some tasty Barefoot holiday recipes guaranteed to make your toes tingle and your belly full!
What is going to be on your table this Turkey Day? Let me know in the comments below!
Here are my three favorite Turkey Day Treats:
Barefoot Pinot Grigio Glaze (for a gorgeous turkey)
Bring mixture to a slow simmer. Take a tablespoon of cornstarch and dissolve it in a ¼ cup of hot water and then drizzle it, while whisking into the pan. This will thicken the mixture giving it a glaze consistency. About 20 minutes before the Turkey is finished cooking, liberally brush on the glaze and return to oven. Pull the turkey out of the oven and let sit for at least 15 minutes before cutting.
Serve Barefoot Pinot Grigio, it not only works great with the turkey, it will compliment the side dishes nicely as well. Pinot Noir is also a great choice for dinner!
Barefoot Pinot Poached Pears
Combine Barefoot Pinot Noir, brown sugar, ginger, cinnamon and nutmeg in a heavy large saucepan. Cover and bring to simmer. Add pears and return mixture to simmer. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer slowly until pears are tender when pierced with a knife (about 20 minutes). Using slotted spoon, transfer pears to plate to rest. When cool enough to touch, grasp the pears by the stem area and slice pears lengthwise so they can be fanned and placed on a serving plate. Serve the poached pears (1/2 pear for each guest) with a scoop of coffee ice cream and chocolate sauce drizzled over the top.
Barefoot Moscato Sweet Potatoes
Preheat oven to 450°F, in large glass baking dish toss together all ingredients including the ½ cup of Barefoot Moscato. Bake 20 minutes; stir the potatoes to expose the pieces from the bottom. Bake another 20 minutes, or until potatoes are tender and caramelized on the outside.
ENJOY!

Hey Foot Fans!
One of my favorite recipes to make is chili - it's easy, hearty, and you can freeze it and it can make for many, many meals. Great if you're constantly on the go and have a family (or house full of roommates!) to feed. Equally perfect as a meal in front of the couch on a fall football gameday or at a backyard BBQ.
November Chili:
Garnish:
Brown and drain ground beef & chicken. Set aside. Sautee onion and garlic. Add tomatoes, spices, beans, cornmeal, stock and zinfandel. Mix with meat and transfer to a covered Dutch oven (300F). Cook for 3 hours. Stir 1-2 per hour. Let sit open in the oven for 30 minutes prior to serving to make sure texture isn’t too wet. Garnish and serve.
Enjoy!
Hello there Foot Fans!

We wanted to share with you some behind the scenes images of singer Robin Thicke and DJ Vanessa James getting Barefoot and enjoying our Bubbly Mango Mimosas at The Beat 103.5's studios!
The Mango Mimosa is one of our Tropical Mimosas and is so easy to make!
All you need is the following:
Instructions:
1) Fill a champagne flute halfway with Barefoot Bubbly Brut
2) Finish with fresh mango juice
3) Garnish with a slice of mango (or create a pulp and add to the bottom of the flute)
Delicious!

Love how 1WineDude is helping us spread the word about making a lasting #impression!
"Wine is bottled poetry" - Robert Stevenson. We'd have to agree with that and how kind for our friend Bernadette to show us so much love. What a compliment :)
We love this #impression that Rob shared so kindly. What a great lesson to learn and so awesome of him to share it with us and participate in helping us make a lasting impression!
There are so many amazing people who have taken a few minutes this week to spread the word about making a lasting Impression. We're so grateful for people like Kaitlin who took just a few seconds to support our friends at Life Rolls On.
Love Dawana's tweet. Sounds like an extremely happy fridge ;)
