A red wine from a small European country has found its way to this week’s presidential inauguration. The director of the winery is hoping it’ll help bring attention to the country’s wine industry.
Boris Mrgudic, director of the Benmosche Family Winery, said: “This news will certainly contribute to promotion of the Croatian wines which is very important, because Croatia is a small wine producer and still not very competitive on the global markets.”
The wine sells for about $60 to $70 per bottle in the U.S.
Mrgudic says he doesn’t know which particular lunch or dinner the wine will be served at during Wednesday’s event.
