COLUMBUS DAY: WE'LL BE THERE

With bottles of Pinot Grigio DOC Piave 2008 and Raboso DOC Piave 2003, Moletto will be in New York to celebrate Columbus Day in an event sponsored by the Veneto Region and promoted by UVIVE. Columbus Day is a major holiday in the US that celebrates the discovery of America. The international flavor of Pinot Grigio and the traditional goodness of Raboso: these are the two wines Moletto will be offering the Amerian public. They will be presented in the grand exhibition areas set up in Grand Central Station in New York, through which a minimum of 300,000 people pass each day. It is one of the landmarks of the Big Apple and even Jacqueline Kennedy was involved in the fierce, but successful, battle against those who wanted to demolish it. The setting being offered by the Unione Consorzi Vini Veneti Doc is that of Venice's Piazza San Marco with 500 photographs on exhibition, a Murano glass tree, entertainment and a large area reserved for the wines. Four hours each day, from 11am to 1pm and 4 to 6pm have been dedicated to wine tasting. Projected on a large screen will be the characteristics of Veneto DOC wines; Moletto is present for Piave DOC. Also planned is a gala event at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, a reception at Grand Central Terminal and meeting with New York's Mayor Bloomberg. All to be held from October 8th to 13th. Moletto will be contributing the international mood of its Pinot Grigio, together with the traditional taste of the Piave area in its Raboso which has already shown itself popular in the US on other occasions.
