$15.39
In Italy Prosecco is known as a "welcome wine." It's given to guests soon after they arrive. Here in the States you can make Mom feel welcome by gifting her this dry bubbly for Mother's Day. Widely know for their bright orange-label, Mionetto's organic varietal is more uncommon.

LGV wines are sold in sets of four individual-serving bottles. Each is one large pour: perfect for the Mom who doesn't want more than one glass. Their wine is predominantly sourced from small vineyards in France that do not have wide international distribution. The Bandol rosé from Château Val D'Arenc is light and delicious; a favorite among their collection.

Give mom a bottle of Betelgeuse — a white blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Vermentino — if she likes trying something that goes down easy. With hints of lemongrass and pear, plus limestone and a silky mouthfeel, it's made by one of Napa Valley's few Black-owned and operated vineyards, Brown Estate, which has been operating since 1980.
