Join me & WIN an Italian Wine Tasting Kit!

April 26, 2011 by DanicasDaily 92 Comments

Happy Tuesday all!  I figured I owed all my Wine Drinkers something after all that Beer.  What better way to do that then to share in the FUN!

I was invited to join Bertolli in a virtual wine tasting and FOOD paring event, and I get to CHOOSE ONE READER TO JOIN ME!!

Attending the VIRTUAL EVENT is optional ~ everyone can win the KIT!

The wine tasting & pairing will be led by Sommelier and vino Italiano expert Stacie Hunt, certified by the Association of Italian Sommeliers.

As a friend of Bertolli & Danica’s Daily Open-mouthed smile, the winner will receive a wine tasting kit so you can follow along with Stacie as she guides you through the tasting process, allowing you to truly define the variety of flavors found in Italian wines and how they complement an array of delectable Italian meals. You will also get the full story of Italian wines and even a few great tips for using them in cooking – the complete ambiente!

The event will take place on their UStream channel on Wednesday, May 4 from 7:00 – 7:30 pm CST. Participating is easy, at the time of the event visit www.Ustream.tv/Bertolli, click on the “Check-in and Chat” button to login with your Twitter account and tweet using #Bertolli.

ONE LUCKY WINNER WILL ALL OF THIS:

    Oh my gosh, what a fun giveaway Danica. I love wine and cheese and my friend (neighbor next door) and I will often try to have a Friday night wine and cheese tasting 🙂 I’d love to take part in this one live, online 🙂
    I love all kinds of cheese and love finding new ones to try with different wines. I’ve only just discovered that I can enjoy a glass of red wine, I always thought I disliked it. Cabernet is the nicer of them, I mainly drink a Pinot Grigio at weekends.
