Need a new reason to drink wine? How about the cute little fellow on the right. Clos LaChance Winery in San Martin, California has partnered with The Hummingbird Society to create a limited "Threatened Species" blended wine. The hummingbird is already the symbol of the winery and this fall they will release the Juan Fernández Firecrown Hummingbird Series wine, a Bordeaux blended wine is named after the Juan Fernández Firecrown. The wine costs $25 per bottle and 15% percent of sales on each bottle will be donated to the Hummingbird Society for preservation of the Juan Fernández Firecrown.
