Schramsberg Brut Rosé 2004 was served recently at the State Dinner at the White House honoring Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and His Royal Highness The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. This continues the tradition of the White House serving Schramsberg sparkling wines at official events. Their wines have been served at over seventy-two events under every sitting president since Nixon’s famous 1972 “Toast to Peace” with China’s Chou En-Lai in Beijing.
