PRESIDENT OBAMA AND PRESIDENT CALDERON
L.A.Cetto wines of Mexico were poured at the recent visit of Mexico President Calderon to Washington. President Obama’s fancy state dinner menu was created in part by guest chef Rick Bayless, founder of Chicago's Frontera Grill and Topolobampo, which had been a regular stop for Mrs. Obama when she lived in Chicago. The four-course meal featured Oregon Wagyu beef in Oaxacan black mole as the entree. Mr Bayless has been a long time fan of the L.A.Cetto winery serving their wines in his restaurants for many years. At a recent conversation at the Fancy Food show in NY, Bayless spoke about his recent trip to the winery and the tasting of the newest vintages. Twenty cases of L.A.Cetto wine were sent to Washington for the guests of Obama and Calderon to enjoy with the Ambassador . The Double Gold Award winning L.A.Cetto 2004 Nebbiolo was poured in crystal stemware.
