Popular Prosecco Continues Partnership with Unique Event Series March 4, 2019, New York, NY - Zonin Prosecco, of ZONIN1821, the largest private winemaking company in Italy, is partnering with Citi Taste of Tennis to build excitement ahead of the US Open Tennis Championship in 2019. The event has grown rapidly over the years, and this will be Zonin Prosecco’s second year as a sponsoring partner. The Citi Taste of Tennis events take place in four cities, Indian Wells, Miami, Washington, D.C., and New York City where tennis stars and the city's culinary greats enjoy an evening of mixing, mingling, food, and music. The first event this year is set to take place on March 4th at the Hyatt Regency Indian Wells Resort and Spa where guests will be able to enjoy Zonin Prosecco throughout the evening at the exclusive Zonin Prosecco Wine Bar. Recognized for being an authentic and contemporary Italian experience, Zonin Prosecco has an exclusive production technique that delivers a wine that is always young and fresh. “Zonin Prosecco is one of the most popular Proseccos on social media (#zoninprosecco), and without any doubt one of the best-selling Proseccos, whose name recalls the roots of the Zonin Family, vintners since 1821, and its historical tradition of winemaking,” says Ana Hernandez, Head of Marketing, Zonin USA. While Taste of Tennis also takes place in four cities, all of which Zonin Prosecco will be participating in, the NYC event is the largest and most anticipated. Expect appearances from tennis stars John Isner, Mischa and Alexander Zverev, Sloane Stephens, Sam Querrey, Jelena Ostapenko, Kevin Anderson, and many more. Like in years past, the event will include cooking competitions, VIP hours where attendees can hang with the stars, and cuisine prepared by Iron Chefs.
