ARDMORE, Pa., April 26, 2018 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/
-- The Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board announced that
winemaker Filippo Zardetto will host
a special tasting and sign bottles of his family's prosecco at Fine
Wine & Good Spirits Premium Collection in the Ardmore Plaza
Shopping Center, 62 Greenfield Ave., Montgomery County, on Sunday, April 29, from noon to 2:00 PM.
Filippo Zardetto comes from a
long, proud, and accomplished line of winemakers. Filippo's
great-great grandfathers were award-winning winemakers, and it was
his grandfather who founded the Zardetto winery and began to
produce prosecco back in 1969. In 1982, Filippo's father Fabio
joined the company and now, 35 years later, Zardetto Prosecco, once
only known in Milan, Bologna, and
Rome, can be enjoyed in cities
around the world. After graduating with honors from Venice Business
School, Filippo became involved in marketing and sales at
Zardetto.
Filippo will offer samples of Zardetto Prosecco Brut
($14.99) to those 21 years of age and
older. He will also sign pre-purchased bottles, answer customers'
questions, and share stories, history, and interesting facts about
his company.
