Now you can watch Lacey Chabert move from the big city and fall in love with the Christmas tree farmer while sipping on your choice of “Jingle,” a Cabernet Sauvignon with "aromas of cherry, dark chocolate, and a hint of holiday spice"; or “Joy,” a Sauvignon Blanc with "notes of tropical fruits, white peach, and ripe pineapple."
