Wines Of Sicily Brings Flavors Of Home To Fall Bonberi Mart Pop-Up

NEW YORK, Oct. 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Wines of Sicily and Bonberi Mart, two brands rooted in bringing sustainable, yet approachable goods to wine and food-lovers, are partnering to give New Yorkers a taste of Sicily with a pop-up featuring the brands' plant-based wine and food. People outside of New York can follow along on social and enter for a chance to win one of Wines of Sicily's Apartment Dweller Cellars.

"Sicilian wines are hidden gems that I'm hoping more people will discover through this partnership, and they get extra points for naturally being sustainable wines," said Nicole Berrie, food and wellness tastemaker and founder of Bonberi.com and Bonberi Mart. "My go-to white is Grillo, because of its easy-drinking versatility – swap it in for a Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc and try it with our signature Chickpea Nicoise bowl. And for a Syrah-like red, you can't beat the super drinkable Nero d'Avola."

October 4 through October 17, anyone can stop by Bonberi Mart to learn more about Wines of Sicily, sign-up for a tasting and try Bonberi's plant-based menu item inspired by the charming, Mediterranean island of Sicily. The Bonberi Mart Sicilian Shiitake Ragu is available only during the pop-up and features gluten-free pasta, tempeh ragu, fresh zucchini, peas, herbs and toasted pine nuts over a bed of arugula.

Those outside of New York can follow along on Instagram at @winesofsicily, @bonberimartdaily, and @bonberi, where Berrie will share scenes of the pop-up happenings. In addition, people can enter for the chance to win one of four Apartment Dweller Cellars. Part home décor, part wine fridge, this stylish piece of furniture holds 12 bottles of wine and is designed for small apartment dwellers who are short on space and big on style. To enter, simply like and comment on @winesofsicily's Apartment Dweller Cellar announcement post across social media channels.

"Wines of Sicily offers a rich mosaic of flavors ripe for discovery by more Americans, and we know Nicole's fans have evolved and adventurous palates when it comes to wine and food, so we are excited about this partnership," said Antonio Rallo, president of Wines of Sicilia DOC, whose members protect, promote, and enhance the denomination of origin Sicilia DOC. "As an island, Sicily is abundant in natural resources, with a diversity of landscapes and microclimates that yield a great variety of red and white wines that stand out for consistency, quality and value."
