WINE XO… for the Love of Wine

By Dona Mathews

Between the Friendsgiving(s) and the Thanksgiving(s), the post-holiday brunches and dinners, the festive holiday soirees, the different office parties, and networking events, and all the other unnamed gatherings, phew!  I can see how it can become a busy (and boozy) couple of months!

Whether gifting a fabulous bottle of wine to a dinner host or having a group of your friends enjoys a bottle you selected will have you looking like an absolute rockstar this season, with our guidance.

So we head to one of the “exclusive agents for the most prestigious wine estates in the world”, Freixenet Mionetto USA. As one of the largest producers of sparkling wines in the world, Freixenet Mionetto USA “offers a comprehensive portfolio of premium, iconic sparkling wine brands from renowned producers around the world. Led by quality and innovation, the company ranks in the top six sparkling wine companies” Source

David Wolfson, Director of Sales, was very clear with his recommendations for wine this season.

Freixenet Cordon Negro Brut

“As guests begin to arrive, and you begin to pass out appetizers, I recommend the Freixenet Cordon Negro Brut, also known as the “black bottle bubbly”.  At a price point of $14.99, it’s available at every major retailer, allowing you the flexibility to pick up a few bottles anywhere you go. It’s delicious and easy to sip on, without getting filled with wine.”

Gloria Ferrer Carneros Pinot Noir

“As dinner is served, I recommend you open up a bottle of our Gloria Ferrer Carneros Pinot Noir to be served.  This silky Pinot Noir displays a deep blackfruit and a spice up front with a mouth feel that goes all the way through the finish; making it the perfect pairing for Turkey or Ham, traditionally served at most Thanksgiving dinners. Retailing under $20, and available at most major retailers, we’re bringing you yet another brand at a tremendous value.” 

Mionetto Prestige Prosecco DOC Treviso

“As it’s time for dessert, because it is a drop sweeter, I’d recommend the Mionetto Prestige Prosecco DOC Treviso to close the night out on a sweet note. You can continue to enjoy this on your own throughout the evening because of its clean finish.” 

Freixenet Cava – $14.99

Gloria Ferrer Pinot Noir from Sonoma – $19.99

Mionetto Prosecco –  $14.99
