the best guest
Erin: I’m tired of bringing the same bottle of wine to dinner parties but I don’t want to spend a ton every time we get invited somewhere. What do you recommend?
Elisabeth: Coco Blanca loves her wine and can definitely recommend several choices well under $30. Elisabeth recommends a crisp Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc like Kim Crawford or Rain; and Susie suggests either Cedar Knoll Hagen’s Reserve Cabernet or Neyers Chardonnay. But if you’re looking for a hostess gift other than wine, we recommend a set of Whiskey Stones to put the chill in one’s cocktail without diluting its essence, or a small porcelain bowl that can be used for serving nuts or other cocktail condiments. Each of these hostess gifts cost $24.95 and are available at Coco Blanca.
