Bota Box's Tailgate Season Contest: Win Tickets to the Big Game!

The Fall season is upon us, and so is the excitement of tailgating for the football lovers in the country! This year, Bota Box wine is making sure fans take their tailgates to the next level with an exciting recipe contest called the "Wing It with Bota" contest, inviting passionate home cooks to create their own chicken wing recipes paired with their delicious wines. The stakes are high, with the grand prize being two tickets to football's most awaited game this coming February in Santa Clara, California!

A Flavorful Fusion: Chicken Wings and Bota Box Wines

For many football enthusiasts, there are two staples that make a game day extraordinary: crispy chicken wings and a quality drink. Recognizing this, Bota Box has positioned itself as a top choice for tailgate parties with its eco-friendly and portable packaging that perfectly caters to gatherings without the fear of spills or breakage. With its award-winning varietals, Bota Box reflects versatility, making it the ideal companion for delicious chicken wings.

The contest runs from September 1 to October 31, 2025, where participants are encouraged to submit their original chicken wing recipes along with their chosen Bota Box wine pairing. Three talented finalists will be selected and treated to an all-expense-paid trip to the San Francisco Bay Area. Notably, these finalists will showcase their culinary creations at the Guy Fieri's Flavortown Tailgate on February 8, 2026.

Engaging Activities and Culinary Partnerships

Alongside the contest, Bota Box has planned a series of events aimed at engaging football and wine enthusiasts alike. Leading up to National Tailgate Day on September 6, the Bota Box WingMobile will make a special appearance at the National Buffalo Wing Festival in Buffalo, New York. This event, scheduled for Labor Day Weekend, will allow festival-goers to sample a variety of flavorful wing recipes that pair well with Bota Box wines, catering to fans aged 21 and over.

Chef Eddie Jackson, an NFL veteran, renowned Food Network host, and author, has created original wing recipes that complement Bota Box wines for a delicious experience. His carefully designed recipes will be featured on www.botabox.com/football, offering unique inspirations for wine-friendly wings.

Andrew Blok, Marketing Director for Bota Box, emphasizes that, "Chicken wings are America's favorite football food, and Bota Box wines are a perfect pairing. With a wine to complement every style of wings—and a format that's just as shareable and delicious—Bota Box is ready for football season." His words capture the spirit of togetherness that tailgating embodies, encouraging fans to step up their game day experience.
