Giuliana and Bill Rancic
Enjoy Giuliana Prosecco with Giuliana and Bill Rancic presented by Fine Wine & Good Spirits on Friday, Nov. 16, during a special VIP experience at 6:30 PM. During the demonstration, attendees can sample seared striped bass with a fresh citrus reduction and rainbow chard finished with sea salt pepitas paired with Giuliana Prosecco. The demonstration will be followed by a bottle signing of Giuliana Prosecco, which will be available on-site at Fine Wine & Good Spirits.
Immigrating to the U.S. from Italy at the age of 7, Giuliana learned English by watching television personalities — before eventually becoming an E! News anchor herself. Whether overcoming her cancer diagnosis or taking on many career roles as a media personality, author, editor, philanthropist, or entrepreneur, Giuliana has faced all obstacles with an unwavering determination. She is a New York Times best-selling author and the winner of the Fan Favorite award at the 2014 Daytime Emmy Awards. Giuliana is the costar of E!'s hugely popular "Fashion Police" team, is the host of "Beyond Candid with Giuliana," and has been on the red carpet for every mega-event in the entertainment industry (Oscars, Grammy Awards, Golden Globes) interviewing the stars and getting breaking Hollywood scoops and all things pop culture.
Bill Rancic burst onto the national scene when he was hired as the first apprentice of NBC's breakthrough program "The Apprentice." Currently, Bill is speaking to businesses and organizations around the world on motivational and business topics. He makes regular appearances on numerous daytime broadcast and cable television programs such as "Today," "The View," "Rachael Ray," and various CNBC programs to talk to viewers about business and entrepreneurship. He also regularly appears in many major national, regional and local print outlets throughout the country. He is also the author of a New York Times best-selling book.
Giuliana Prosecco is the first wine in a partnership between Terlato Wines and Bill and Giuliana Rancic, co-founders of Chicago-based RPM Restaurants. Giuliana Prosecco features an aroma of Golden Delicious apple, pear, and acacia blossom, with a fresh, fruity complexity on the palate and a light, velvety body. Paying homage to Giuliana Rancic's family roots in Italy, the DOC prosecco is made from 100 percent Glera grapes from Veneto, one of Italy's premier wine-making regions.
