2006 Russian Cuvée

The same base wine as Classic Vintage Brut, but with a richer dosage, which makes it more opulent, slightly sweeter and heightens the fruit. Originally designed for the historic Reagan-Gorbachev Summit Meetings ending the Cold War. According to USA Today, "an intertwining of the arts of diplomacy and gastronomy".

Food Pairing

Delicious before, during or even as dessert. Especially festive during the holidays with a handful of pomegranate seeds bobbing in the glass.
