What Time Is ‘Wine O’Clock’?
Let's be real, wine is great anytime, but a new study has found that Americans think there's an ideal time to "wine down".
So, what time is "Wine O'Clock"? According to SWNS Digital, the study discovered that 6:59 p.m. is the ideal time to enjoy a glass of wine.
Maybe I'm just a wino, but doesn't 6:59 p.m. seem a little late? I mean, I'm also the person that will call anytime of day "Wine O'Clock" if I'm popping bottles, but 6:59 p.m.? Really?
The study also found a few other fun little wine facts:
- 65% of people voted wine as the #1 of Americans’ top 20 little luxuries.
- Saturday evening is the preferred day of the week to get your sip on.
- Most people would rather drink wine at home.
- The top "reason" to drink wine is for me-time/to relax.
Basically, people just really like wine, but we already knew that.
