But yet in your previous posts you have adamantly stated that they haven't had any real products and that they are not a real company or they don't win real awards...the same old, how you say, "rinse and repeat" story. You can spin it negatively like you are or you can look into the company, call the company, do real DD and understand that they are just starting to hit the ground here. Look at that filing date, Sept 30...the majority of the company's progress and in turn reflected by the number of announcements, has happened AFTER that quarter ended.

As I've said in the past, I would like to see what the numbers look like at the end of the First quarter of this year to really see the tale of the tape. Continuing to harp on 6 year old pumps can easily be said for almost ANY OTC. Many of which were previously "active shells" but because they had some kind of asset, they most likely never hit "shell status".

It takes real products to make an OTC into a viable company. I could be placing my foot in my mouth come March/April but with a new product launched and the overall reach & appeal that this prosecco brand could have above and beyond BiVi, there's a reason why many of us are long on this. The price will eventually take care of itself in my opinion. Anyone who's developed something from the ground up will go through growing pains especially with people constantly beating very old and warn out dead horses..caugh caugh lol

Sparkling Wines Seen Driving World Consumption Growth to 2019

Sparkling wines are poised to lead growth in the global wine market from 2015 to 2019, with rose wines and premium labels also driving expansion, according to the Bordeaux-based international wine and spirits exhibition Vinexpo.

While worldwide wine consumption looks set to rise 1.4 percent over the period, sparkling wines, which account for 8 percent of the total, will advance 7.4 percent, according to an e-mailed study released this week from Vinexpo. Rose wine consumption, which accounts for 9 percent of still light wines consumed, will grow by 2.2 percent and premium still light wines are forecast to rise 12 percent, Vinexpo said.
Sparkling wine.

The prediction for renewed growth comes after global consumption of still light wine fell 1.2 percent in 2014 to 2.4 billion 9-liter cases, led by declining consumption in Europe and the Asia-Pacific region, according to Vinexpo, which drew on International Wine and Spirit Research data. North America remains a growing market. Sluggish growth in world economies, combined with stricter laws against drinking and driving in many regions and broader publicity over health issues, have contributed to the decline.

“What we’ve seen in the last survey is the emergence of sparkling wine globally,” Vinexpo Chief Executive Officer Guillaume Deglise said in a telephone interview. “Mainly prosecco is driving the category. Rose wine is also quite strong.”

Deglise said demand in China is picking up again after a downturn sparked by government measures against gift-giving, with consumers now driving sales rather than corporate buyers.

“The market is recovering, but in a different way from before,” Deglise said. “It seems Chinese consumers are real consumers, which creates a lot of opportunity for exporters.”
