Take Me Out to the Ball Game
My dad is a huge baseball fan. More specifically, he’s a Yankee fan. So when I received an invitation to attend the press party for the launch of Charity Wines for several Yankee and Mets players a few weeks ago I had to take my dad.
While we enjoyed tasting the different wines – Jorge Posada’s Jorge Cabernet, Bobby Areu’s Abreu's Finest and Brian Schneider’s Schneider Schardonnay were three of the wines there – and the hors d’oeurves – they had pigs-in-a-blanket with a great deli mustard – we got to see and hear from the players affiliated with each wine. The proceeds from each wine go to the respective player’s charity/foundation.
Anyway, I thought that these wines would make a great gift for your dad, groomsmen or even your groom if they're baseball fans. They retail for $13.99 at local wine stores and there are 19 different wines, representing players from 6 teams: Atlanta Braves, Baltimore Orioles, Boston Red Sox, Cincinnati Reds, New York Mets and New York Yankees. If the men in your life aren’t baseball fans, there are wines supporting charities of players from the New Orleans Saints, Boston Bruins and the Miami Dolphins.
