And, when one prestigious eatery first came to Boston a few years ago, it charged more for a glass of Debon than for the entire bottle!

It\u2019s a great way to share with friends (Our Westie Poppy gifted a bottle to her favorite butcher and he is now a Dibon fan.)

Very food-friendly &#8230;&quot;&#0160; <\/p>\n<p>&quot;Dibon Cava would be a perfect opener for a party, at a restaurant with friends, to begin a meal or an evening.
