Prosecco Montesel & White House

President Barack H. Obama, his wife Michelle and all their "VIP guests" toasted with Montesel Prosecco extra-dry "vineyard of paradise" on the evening of his oath and inauguration at the White House

 

The Montesel farm has been present since the early 90s in some of the main and most prestigious American states thanks to Tricana Imports (https://www.tricanawines.com/).
the wise work of the representative agents, combined with the work of the Veneto region and the undoubted passion of Michele Obama for Italian products, in addition to the distinguished quality that we have always chosen to supply, have allowed our company to supply 250 bottles of our extra Prosecco -dry "vineyard of paradise" at the inauguration ball of United States President Barack H. Obama. We can therefore say with certainty that the first bubbles Obama tasted as US president are ours.
below is the translation of the letter of thanks (in the photos) from the president of the movement that organized the ball to celebrate the inauguration of Barack Obama.
