Film festival gets a little added Italian fizz

To celebrate the 70th anniversary of Santa Margherita Prosecco Superiore, the Italian wine brand will be the official Gold Partner of the 2022 St Ali Italian Film Festival taking place nationally from September 13-October 16.

One of the largest celebrations of Italian cinema outside of Italy, the film festival will present Italian blockbusters and classics on the big screen. 

Throughout the festival partnership, Santa Margherita will pay homage to the first Prosecco Superiore made in 1952 by Santa Margherita in Conegliano-Valdobbiadene (where I happened to visit last month). 

Cinemagoers attending opening nights across Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane will experience a pop-up bar experience from Santa Margherita. 

"The 70th anniversary of the Prosecco Superiore is a momentous occasion for Santa Margherita," said brand ambassador Erika Gallon. "We can’t wait to transport cinema goers to the world of Italy and experience the la dolce vita way of life.”

Which may just be gilding the lily a little bit.
