Lorraine Bracco and Martha Stewart Demonstrate Heart-Healthy Cooking Featuring Bracco Wines on "The Martha Stewart Show"
Feb 2, 2007 9:00:00 AM
NEW YORK, NY -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 02/02/07 -- Straight Up Brands, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: STRU) (the "Company") http://www.straightupbrands.com/, an emerging developer and international marketer of premium branded wines and spirits headquartered in New York, announced today actress Lorraine Bracco and host Martha Stewart will prepare a heart healthy meal of Coq au Vin featuring Bracco Wines' Montepuliciano in honor of the American Heart Association's national Wear Red Day on "The Martha Stewart Show," airing Friday, February 2nd (check local listings for time and station). Wear Red Day is a leg of the association's Go Red for Women campaign to raise awareness about heart disease in women.

"Both my mother and father suffer from heart disease," said Bracco, "so heart disease is a very personal issue for me and my family. I'm honored to do my part to help raise awareness about the importance of identifying and reducing risk factors, and motivate others to take action to protect their health."

Having lived in Europe for ten years, Lorraine was first exposed to the craftsmanship and tradition of winemaking and quickly became enamored with the process. While gaining acclaim for her acting prowess, she has continued to refine and develop her palette for fine wine and food while her respect for and interest for both have grown through the years. Lorraine handpicked eight notable Italian wines, from Pinot Grigio to Amarone, for release under the Bracco Wines label to share her passion and provide all levels of wine enthusiasts a trusted voice for quality.

Bracco Wines, which are available in select markets across the country, debuted last spring. Bracco Wine is a line of eight Italian wines that the Company owns and markets in collaboration with the actress Lorraine Bracco.
