Joy to the world. Nothing heals a stomach flu faster than watching your candidate slam-dunk the election and put perma-smiles on the faces of all your Oakland neighbors.
Kendall-Jackson is pretty stoked too. When the vintner got wind that the president-elect like its Chardonnay (a People magazine article mentioned a bottle of it sitting on the Obama’s counter top) they sent two cases of the Kendall-Jackson Vintner’s Reserve Chardonnay to him. The wine has been the top selling Chardonnay in America for the past 18 years. Who knows what other goodies will fill the Pennyslvania Avenue cellar beyond the requisite sparkling goodies such as Iron Horse and Schramsberg.
According to Mark Osmun of Kendall-Jackson, the Reserve Chardonnay was a favorite in the Reagan White House, too.
Talk about reaching across party lines. YES WE CAN!

Hehehe. When I eventually make my first wine at Crushpad, think I’ll call it Yes We Can.
