TODAY IS THE LAST DAY!! Let’s support this great cause!! #frankfightshunger Frank Family Vineyards is teaming up with Feeding America to help fight hunger across the country. This nationwide network leads the fight against hunger in the United States, providing food to more than 46 million people through 60,000 food pantries to date. For the entire month of November, we are donating 10% of proceeds from each online purchase of our Carneros Pinot Noir to Feeding America. That’s equivalent to about 11 meals per bottle to children and families in need. Each Frank Fights Hunger Package includes a bottle of our 2017 Carneros Pinot Noir and a unisex t-shirt (available in sizes S, M, L, XL). Please call Jennifer Higgins at 707-942-2314 to select your size and place your order.
All smiles by the Brunello Consortium President, a very sweet person! This picture is from earlier this Month. I was so happy to attend the Special Inaugural Gala Dinner entitled “An Evening Among The Stars” : The event took place at the Park Hyatt Hotel on November 14th, where I had the opportunity to attend a tasting of the Brunello di Montalcino 2015, a Five Star Vintage. It was really excellent and I highly recommend seeking it out. Dinner of course spared no expense, as it was prepared by two Michelin Star Chef Andrea Aprea, of the Italian Restaurant Vun. Delicious! Also thank you InstaFam, this is the dress the majority of you voted on! After some alterations, loved it! #brunellodimontalcino #consorciobrunellodimontalcino #2015vintage #brunellobaby #italianwine #italiana

The other day I posted about wines to bring as a gift. Today I am adding to this by showing how certain wine regions, particularly @loirevalleywine, can be incredibly food friendly! Whatever your preference, the diversity of Loire Valley Wines certainly has a nice compliment to your meal. Read more in my stories or blog post! #loirevalley #loireValleyWine #ad
Who knew Pinot Grigio could taste and smell so good? I was recently provided with a sample of @terlatowines Pinot Grigio from Fruili Colli Orientali which is a prime Pinot Grigio planting area. The taste is really different from the Pinot Grigio of the Veneto region. By the way, did you check out the glass? It’s by @riedel_official and was made specifically for this wine. More on my blog! #tasteisthedifference #terlatovineyards #terlato #pinotgrigio #friuli #wine #ad

Let’s be friends.
