Dallas, TX – Dallas Market Center, the world’s largest wholesale merchandise resource, announced The Gourmet Market will debut “The Grape Vine” as well as a variety of new lines during the Total Home & Gift Market taking place June 18-24.

The Gourmet Market is a 5,000-square-foot shared showroom that features more than 2,000 product lines of gourmet foods, kitchen accessories, casual tabletop and gourmet gadgets. As the only open daily gourmet showroom in the United States, it serves as a culinary showplace for the newest products from leading chefs and gourmet companies.

“The Grape Vine” is a new showcase for Texas wineries and wine accessories. It will feature new products presented by Erik Hahn & Associates such as Sharon O’Connor’s Menus & Music, packages of themed recipe books paired with fitting music; Table Topics, wine and gourmet questions to spark fun conversation; and Eccolo, Italian-manufactured, handmade, Tuscan-styled leather wine journals.

Additional lines that “The Grape Vine” will introduce include Mistral Imports’ Wine Sceptre, which is designed to keep wine at the proper temperature while serving; Polish Pottery Plus, hand-painted wine stoppers and serving pieces; and Sisters Wine Emporium’s tasting tables, stools, and other pieces created from authentic, aged-oak wine barrels. Wine tastings will be available Friday through Sunday during market to celebrate the debut of “The Grape Vine” with award-winning selections of wine from Inwood Estates Winery.

New Eco-friendly lines coming this June to The Gourmet Market offer alternatives such as reusable shopping bags by Haute Market Bags and Organic Confections which are made from minimally processed natural ingredients.

Food tastings will be offered daily in The Gourmet Market from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. (Friday until 8 p.m.). Stop by and enjoy delicious foods to satisfy your gourmet appetite and while you’re there drop your business card for a chance to win prizes offered by The Gourmet Market exhibitors.
