Steven Boccone, Wife Attend Bellevue Hotel Wine Tasting Event



     Ah, what Christmas celebration would be complete without some fine spirits to brighten and lighten up everyone’s mood in such a festive occasion? There is none, for sure!

Be it for a wine connoisseur or just plain folks trying to imbibe the joyful atmosphere of Christmas, fine wines would always be part and parcel of the Yuletide season. The effect of such fine wines is known to induce a sense of merry-making to anyone who partakes of them. For this very reason, almost every Christmas celebration requires the presence of fine spirits to let guests fully enjoy the revelry.

And Steven Boccone knows this too well.

     That’s exactly the reason why he and his lovely wife, Karen Adriano Boccone, come to wine tasting events and take a sip of some the world’s best wines. Such occasions are also a perfect time to meet people including wine experts who find comfort and satisfaction in fine wines and great food.

Last December 7, 2008, Steven Boccone and Karen went to a wine tasting event held at the majestic grand lobby of the posh Bellevue Hotel down south. The event was spearheaded by Bellevue’s General Manager Patrick Chan, with Carlo Javier of the Philippine Wine Merchants. Attendees included elite members of The Bellevue Wine Society.

At the event, Steven, Karen, and other VIP guests were treated to a dizzying array of Montes Classic series wines, as well as some mouth-watering canapés and hors d’oeuvres prepared especially for the event by resident chef Nicholas Anderson. The guests absolutely loved the irresistible fusion of fine spirits and sumptuous food!

Among the wines served included Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and more. Guests each had the chance of experiencing the unmistakably excellent tastes of the said wines and surely, each of them went home feeling the joyful atmosphere of the season.

If the laughter that filled the entire event venue is any indication, then it’s safe to say that the event was a huge success.

     Steven Boccone and wife Karen opined that such events give them the opportunity, not only to have a glass or two of excellent-tasting spirits, but also to show their support to such a worthy endeavor. The couple is planning to attend similar events in the future.
