For the holidays or any time of the year consider the grape seed oils this small family business offers. The grape seed oils are produced in the state of Washington. The oils are obtained from the grape seeds that are the leftover results of wine production at large Washington wineries. Typically grape seeds and skins are used as compost in the vineyards. However, Apr\u00e8sVin created a use for these seeds rather than composting.<\/p>\n<p>Grape seed oil categories include: Bare Naked Oils,\u00a0 Citrus Oils, Classic Comfort Oils, Spicy Oils and Exotic Oils. Two of the most recent oils available are the Blood Orange Riesling and the Thaif\u00fcn Chardonnay.<\/p>\n<p>To make it a little easier for shoppers, Apr\u00e8sVin offers several <a href=\"http:\/\/apresvin.com\/products\/gift-packages\">gift packages<\/a> including: Bare Naked Gift Pack, Glassic Gourmet Gift Box, Custom-Design 2-Bottle Gift Pack, Custom- Design 5-Bottle Gift Pack and the Favorites Gift Pack.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to varietal grape seed oils, Apr\u00e8sVin produces: gluten-free grape seed flours, grape seed soaps and smoked sea salt.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_12304\" style=\"width: 154px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/apresvin3-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12304\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12304\" src=\"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/apresvin3-1.jpg\" alt=\"Apr\u00e8sVin Grape Seed Soap\" width=\"144\" height=\"237\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-12304\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Apr\u00e8sVin Grape Seed Soap<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The selection of soaps available include: Evergreen Chardonnay, Lavender Merlot, Rose Riesling, and Sage Cabernet.<\/p>\n<p>Eric Leber\u00a0and Lori Ramonas, owners of Apr\u00e8sVin,\u00a0 have created a very informative website including information about the health benefits of grape seed oils and also includes recipes.
