1. Two Brothers Limited Time Chocolate Bar Holiday Pack
Know someone with an insatiable sweet tooth? Two Brothers is the perfect answer for all of the chocolate lovers in your life. Made with premium Belgian chocolate, Two Brothers offers a variety of irresistible options including chocolate enrobed grahams, chocolate pretzels and an assortment of premium chocolate bars. To make stuffing stockings even easier this year, we packaged a few of our fan-favorite bars with two brand, new limited time seasonal bars to create the ultimate chocolate pack. Varieties include Dark Chocolate with Peppermint Brownie, Dark Chocolate with Cranberry and Almond, Dark Chocolate, Dark Chocolate with Sea Salt and Milk Chocolate.
2. Vin Hunter Prosecco and Prosecco Rosé
Who doesn’t love a little fizz and sparkle around the holidays? Every year, we release our best-selling Vin Hunter Prosecco, made by our friends at the Loredan Gasparini winery, which is located in the Valdobbiadene and Asolo areas of Italy.
Last year, we added Vin Hunter Prosecco Rosé to our holiday lineup and it received rave reviews! Both options are lovely on their own, or mixed into a fun holiday cocktail. Be sure to grab them soon – these customer favorites will sell out before the New Year. Salute!
