VOVETI Prosecco featuring Great Pairing Appetizer

Melon with Prosciutto and Bleu Cheese Appetizer

It’s a busy time of the year for entertaining and many of us are searching for the best holiday appetizers to feature at our parties. We want to make sure OUR PARTY is the best party, but sometimes the best things are everyday, casual things that we enjoy year round. For example, a good prosecco is a staple in most people’s inventory because you can open it up and service it when those unexpected guests stop in, when entertaining at home, or even if you are just snuggling on the couch for a romantic evening. Right now our prosecco of choice is VOVETI prosecco.

Why VOVETI?

It’s upscale and affordable, perfect for everyday pairing or chic entertaining. Made as a collaborative effort between the Collavini and Ferrer family, combined they bring 4 generations of sparkling wine expertise to the table with this modern Italian prosecco. They only produce 15,000 cases annually because they put a lot of attention and care into each bottle.
