Red Wines For Upcoming Autumn
Gifft Red Blend by: Kathie Lee Gifford
It’s no secret that Kathie Lee Gifford loves wine. She and her co-star Hoda always have a fun libation in front of them during the show. The name of the wines come from her last name and belief that friendship, love, and laugher are gifts that should be cherished. Recently Gifford has said that she is willing to make room in her heart for someone new. At this point, it would take someone pretty special to wine to sweep her off her feet. Her busy social life and show keep her content.
What’s  great about Gifft Wines is how affordable they are. It makes them the perfect option to channel your inner Kathie Lee  and entertain friends and family.Â
