What Obama Drank Today

The Bush White House has been criticized for its total lack of finesse in serving wine at White House dinners (like the $300 Napa Valley wine they served at an economic summit on the global financial crisis), but you can't blame George W. too much--after all, he doesn't even drink. Besides, the same wine guy has picked the bottles since 1995.

Here's what the Obamas had at today's inauguration luncheon:

2007 Duckhorn Sauvignon Blanc from Napa, $30

2005 Goldeneye Pinot Noir from Anderson Valley, $50

NV Korbel Natural Champagne from California, $14

According to Forbes.com, these wines were chosen by a bipartisan Senate-House tasting committee. Now that would be a fun committee to elbow your way onto.
