National Red Wine Day is observed worldwide on August 28 each year. This holiday encourages wine enthusiasts to enjoy a glass or two of red wine, whether after work or during a weekend gathering. Celebrants can indulge in their favorite red wines or explore new varieties, as red wines are known for their rich flavors and are typically paired with hearty foods like red meats and bold cheeses. The day was created in 2013 by Jace Shoemaker-Galloway, a freelance writer known for establishing various beverage-related holidays. Popular activities for celebrating include wine tastings, winery tours, and hosting wine tasting parties where friends can share their favorite bottles. Participants are also encouraged to share their experiences on social media using the hashtags #NationalRedWineDay and #RedWineDay.
