Russian Wine Testing

by Forward Legal

Winemaking in Russia started many centuries ago and has had ups and downs. In 1900 Russian sparkling wine won the Grand Prix in Paris, beating French champagne. We'll learn about André Chelistcheff, a Russian aristocrat who became America's leading winemaker “The Maestro”.

We invite RIAC participants to join Russian Wine Testing, hold by Forward Legal law firm. With Alexandra Arshakuni, member of the Russian sommelier association, teacher at WineState wine school and expert on Russian wines, we'll discuss and taste some of the most interesting Russian wines, which have been highly rated at Russian and international competitions, and we will also taste wine that is served at President Putin's dinners.
