Master Blender of Banks DIH Limited, Gregory Garraway said it is a proud achievement for the product which is made exclusively from locally grown rice and sugar.
“This is a positive development for agro-processing in Guyana through the conversion of rice into value-added wine products, he added.
Meanwhile, the company’s Chairman, Clifford Reis, has been extensively promoting the use of locally produced raw materials for products.
“Rice is used exclusively in the production of our wines including the D’Aguiar Moscato,” he said.
The D’Aguiar Moscato is produced in four flavours, Original, Pink, Watermelon, and Mango, and is sold throughout Guyana and exported to the Caribbean, North America, and Europe.
