In Italy, we are used to celebrating Mother’s Day on the second Sunday of May, like in two-thirds of the countries in the world, while in other states, the date falls in March.
Every year, we are always looking for something exclusive, beyond the usual chocolates or bouquets, because we want to make mom feel special, say thank you, and show her that we’ll always be there. After all, mothers are like wine: the older they get, the better they become. What better occasion, then, to gift them a bottle of high-quality wine to enjoy together?
For Mother’s Day, gift the Nero di Troia
To be on the safe side, the Nero di Troia is the best choice to impress mom: besides being of high quality, it immediately wins over even the most refined palates. Surely, even sophisticated mothers will appreciate the gift, perhaps also being enchanted by the elegance of the chosen bottle.
Vinified in the limestone hills of the Murgia, the Nero di Troia has an important pedigree of stories and legends, and is made from the best grapes of one of Puglia’s most robust and characteristic native vineyards. In a glass, therefore, we find the traditions, flavors, and beauties of one of Italy’s most appreciated areas, in an olfactory setting made of enveloping aromas of red fruits and spices.
To each mom, her own Nero di Troia wine
If you’re not entirely sure that wine might be the right gift for mom, because you associate it more with dad or Valentine’s Day, know that it is one of the products most favored by women.
By choosing a Nero di Troia Crifo, the flagship of the Cantina di Ruvo di Puglia, you can opt for the Grifone Nero di Troia Puglia IGP or the Augustale Castel del Monte Nero di Troia Riserva DOCG, both ranked worldwide among the wines preferred by female audiences. Both, in fact, boast respectively the gold medal and the double gold medal at the “Sakura Japan Women’s Wine Award,” the first international wine competition judged exclusively by women.
Considering that distances often make a meeting impossible and maybe the fact that you see mom much more often on video calls, why not have a nice package with both labels delivered to her? This way, not only will there be the surprise effect for the unexpected gift, to be opened and enjoyed together immediately, but we’ll also have the “excuse” – as if needed, since mom is always mom – to see her again soon, to open another fine bottle together, evoking the most beautiful memories.
Because the Nero di Troia is a bit like Proust’s madeleine, it manages to evoke the scent of something beautiful and magical that you’ve shared with someone who is, and will always be, one of the most important people in your life, for whom, and with whom, it’s worth carving out some time to spend together sipping a precious wine, amidst laughter, nostalgia, and why not, a few happy tears that translate into an “I love you” said with a glance.
