It’s no secret that the Italians have a fondness for bubbles and the world has an illustrious love-affair with Prosecco. Join us for this aperitivo of Italy's scintillating sparklers from her most popular export to the hunger-inducing, palate-cleansing frothy red Lambrusco family. This seminar comes with a money back guarantee to put a smile on your face.
