A Presidential Recommendation
Want to celebrate President’s Day with the all the pomp and circumstance of the White House?
Iron Horse Russian Cuvee- (low $30’s) ♥♥♥♥♥ A beautifully elegant sparkling wine from Sonoma County, California. When President Regan hosted Russian President Mikhail Gorbachev for the historic Summit Meetings to end the cold war, he commissioned Iron Horse to produce a sparkling wine for the event. A blend (or cuvee) of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir was chosen. This sparkling wine was used to toast the end of the cold war. It’s been served at the White House during every Presidency since. A little sweeter than their normal wines, it would be great as a cocktail wine. Try it with potato chips, if you’ve never had it that way, you’re in for a real treat. A bit on the pricey side, but great for a special occasion.

I’m not really a big fan of sweet or sparkling wine, but I have had this on many occasions and I must say that this is a wonderful wine!
