Every Day Is Moscato Day Declares De Bortoli Wines as Emeri Moscato and Pink Moscato Win Thousands of Fans

HOBOKEN, N.J., May 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- De Bortoli Wines of Australia has a motto regarding its sparkling Moscato wines: "Every day is worthy of celebrating. Even an ordinary occasion can become special when you toast friends and family."

Celebrants include hip-hop fans at urban nightclubs, brides and grooms toasting to a happy, long marriage, daughters and sons proposing a toast on Mother's Day or just because it's been a good day and you feel like closing it out with some cheerful, bubbly Moscato.

De Bortoli Wines of Australia was one of the first international winemakers to bring wide distribution of Moscato and Pink Moscato to the United States.  Since 2009, De Bortoli's Emeri Pink Moscato and Emeri Moscato have been part of a growing trend to sweeter, lighter wines, leading to an astonishing 73 percent growth in Moscato sales during 2011.

The Emeri line includes Emeri Pink Moscato, Emeri Moscato, Emeri Sparkling Pinot Grigio and Emeri Sparkling Sauvignon Blanc.  It is Moscato that has sparked such media phrases as "Moscato madness" and "Moscato mania."

Many Moscatos have been introduced in the U.S. recently but De Bortoli has been working on the production of its Emeri brand for nearly a decade. The popularity of Emeri's line of wines can be attributed to high quality fruit and De Bortoli's commitment to a perfect balance of fruit, sweetness and acidity.  Emeri wines have received high praise from some of the nation's top media and wine reviewers.

Emeri wines are now found in nearly every state at many major grocery stores, drug and liquor retailers and online.  For more information, contact Olga Haley, 503-860-0848, [email protected] or visit www.emeri.us.
