A Charming Taste of Europe, Delivered to Dad: Celebrate Father's Day in Canada with Wine & Kiwi Gift Inspiration

The Charming Taste of Europe campaign showcases the excellence of EU wine and fruit producers with a refined gift idea for Canadian dads

TORONTO, June 17, 2025 /CNW/ -- Father's Day was celebrated across Canada on June 15, but it's never too late to honor Dad with a thoughtful gesture. Inspired by The Charming Taste of Europe — a campaign co-financed by the European Union celebrating the quality, tradition, and sustainability of some of Europe's most iconic food and wine products, this refined gift idea offers a unique way to show appreciation for Dad's taste and curiosity. From the rolling vineyards of Italy's Abruzzo to the sun-kissed orchards of northern Greece and the elegant late harvest wines of Bordeaux, it's a celebration of European excellence.

The "Classic Celebration Box" includes a premium bottle of wine from Abruzzo, one of Italy's most dynamic regions. Options include a Montepulciano d'Abruzzo DOC, a bold, structured red with notes of red berries and spices; a Trebbiano d'Abruzzo DOC, a fresh and floral white wine; or Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo DOC, a bright and elegant rosé with delicate red fruit aromas.

Complementing the wine is a selection of four handpicked European kiwis from Imathia, northern Greece. Grown sustainably by regional cooperatives, these kiwis stand out for their bright acidity, natural sweetness, and vibrant green flesh, perfectly balancing the richness of the wine.

For those seeking something truly distinctive, the box may also include a bottle of Premières Côtes de Bordeaux, a late harvest white wine known for its elegant floral and fresh fruit notes, offering a balanced and aromatic experience that pairs beautifully with fruit or light dishes.

Together, Abruzzo's expressive wines and the fresh zest of Greek kiwis create a tasting experience that is both unexpected and harmonious. Enhanced by the subtle complexity of a Bordeaux late harvest wine, this Father's Day gift goes beyond a simple present, it becomes a celebration of European excellence.

The Charming Taste of Europe campaign brings together these exceptional products to tell a story of heritage, terroir, and quality. Supported by the European Union, it promotes premium wines from Abruzzo, late harvest wines from Bordeaux, and fresh Greek kiwis in Canada and other markets, inviting consumers to discover and savor Europe's rich agri-food culture.
