The sparkling wines of Prosecco DOC meet the vivid red of Sicily's Red Orange PGI. The exceptional Mimosa cocktail was born from the mix of two Italian excellences protected by the respective Consortia, and was held at the premises of the prestigious Vicenzaoro fair by the president of the Sicilian Red Orange PGI Consortium Gerardo Diana and the vice president of the Prosecco DOC Consortium GianGiacomo Bonaldi Scotti. Also present was the godmother of the Red Mimosa cocktail, Elena Albertini, vice president of the Red Orange Consortium. "It has been a pleasure and an honor to combine our fruit with that of an Italian quality ambassador product in the world such as Prosecco. The union is born from personal friendship and the desire to defend the genuineness of Italian products, sometimes unfairly under fire, ”said president Diana. "We are already working on a new meeting and also a collaboration between our two consortia that could soon lead to juicy and sparkling surprises," said Elena Albertini, vice president of the Consortium. "The collaboration with the Sicilian Orange PGI - comments Stefano Zanette, president of the Consortium for the protection of Prosecco DOC - is yet another example of how Italian excellences, as a team, can conquer new market shares bringing the best taste of Italy in the world higher and higher. Our country is rich in preciousness and their meeting can give rise to extraordinary combinations. This cocktail is an interesting demonstration of that.”
