Live the Lifestyle of the Rich & Famous

By Matthew Milner, on Wednesday, January 31, 2018

Back in the 1980s, there was a TV show called Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous.

Every week, the show’s host, Robin Leach, would take viewers behind the scenes and reveal the extravagant lifestyles of the world’s wealthiest creatures.

Then, at the end of each episode, Leach would wish viewers a life of “champagne wishes and caviar dreams.”

Well, thanks to a new investment we’re about to share with you, that wish might turn into a reality for you — with just one catch:

You won’t be drinking champagne…

Instead, you’ll be drinking a different bubbly beverage — one that’s in far higher demand, and one that could potentially hand investors a far higher return.

The “Other Champagne”

You’ve probably enjoyed a few glasses of Champagne over the years — at weddings, graduations, or other big events.

But if you’re like most people nowadays, when you go to the liquor store to pick up some sparkling wine, Champagne isn’t what you’re buying…

Instead, you’re buying something called Prosecco.

Like Champagne, Prosecco is a type of sparkling white wine — but instead of being produced in the Champagne region of France, it’s made in Italy’s Veneto region.

There are three main reasons for Prosecco’s recent popularity:

  1. Good Value — While a bottle of decent Champagne costs a minimum of $40, a good bottle of Prosecco might set you back just $10 to $30.
  2. Easy To Drink — Prosecco is light and fruity, which makes it easy to enjoy.
  3. Versatile — Because it’s affordable and easy to sip, Prosecco can be suitable for any occasion: from a fancy wedding, to a night at home with some take-out Chinese food.

As word of these advantages has grown, sales of Prosecco have skyrocketed. Over the last four years alone, global sales have doubled to 600 million bottles a year.

Despite this impressive growth, there’s never been a “brand-name” Prosecco — in other words, a recognizable, high-quality brand, like Champagne has with “Dom Perignon.”

Until now…

Introducing Altaneve

The brand I’m talking about is called Altaneve.

In Italian, Altaneve means “high snow.” This is a reference to the country’s snow-capped Dolomite Mountains.

Altaneve

Prosecco has been produced in this region for more than one thousand years. The area’s soil and climate lend a unique taste to the grapes that are grown there.

As Altaneve has said, its sparkling wines are “elegant and refined, offering a crisp character and unique, floral aromas and balanced acidity that are complex yet approachable.”

At $30 per bottle, Altaneve provides an excellent alternative to low-quality sparkling wines (typically $10 to $20 per bottle) or pricey Champagne ($40 per bottle and up).

This makes Altaneve one of the very few options for high-quality sparkling wines in the $20 to $39 price point — a range which accounts for one-third of all wine sales in the U.S.

And these advantages have quickly helped the company achieve considerable success…

Progress to Date 

Since 2013, Altaneve has experienced double-digit sales growth every year.

But in 2018, the company expects its sales to skyrocket by 300% or more.

In part, this growth is thanks to the glowing press the company is receiving.

For example:

Forbes called Altaneve, “One of the finest offerings on the market…”

Food & Wine wrote that, “[Altaneve’s] finely textured rose sparkler has impressive elegance…”

And The Wall Street Journal called it the “the best Prosecco in the world.”

Now, Altaneve is setting its sights on a big goal:

Becoming the #1 global brand in Prosecco.

But to do so, it needs additional capital to grow — which is where you come in…

The Altaneve Investment

Altaneve is currently raising $1 million from investors like you.

The minimum investment is $100.

Should you invest?

On the “pro” side, the company has a lot going for it:

For example, in addition to its potential to become the leading player in a huge, fast-growing market, it finds itself in a sector that’s experiencing high levels of M&A. For example:

E&J Gallo recently bought Stagecoach Vineyard for $180 million…

Private Equity firm GI Partners’ just paid $250 million to acquire Duckhorn Wine Company…

And according to industry publication Wines and Vines, major wine transactions are expected to continue well into the future — which could mean big, fast profits for early investors.

On the “con” side, however:

Altaneve faces stiff competition. 200 Prosecco brands are already sold in the U.S., and many of those brands are owned by major corporations with far greater resources than Altaneve.

Furthermore, the company relies on outside vineyards to supply its grapes. If these suppliers don’t meet their contractual obligations, or if they face “natural disasters” like bad weather, Altaneve may not be able to meet customer demand.
