Treveri Cellars Invited Back To Washington, D.C. For The Third Time

April 21, 2014

Treveri Cellars’ sparkling wines will be served for the third time at the U.S. Department of State for an upcoming reception April 23, 2014. By personal invitation of the Secretary and his wife, Julie and Juergen Grieb, owners of Treveri Sparkling Wine House will be traveling to Washington, D.C. to attend the event. 

Treveri-Juergen-Grieb

Head Chef and Chief of Protocol at the U.S. Department of State Jason L. Larkin first served Treveri’s Extra-Brut Chardonnay and Syrah Brut for the Department’s Holiday Receptions, for the former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in December of 2011. Treveri’s Rose Sec was later again served as part of the menu for the Fourth of July Independence Day celebration for the Diplomatic community, at the rooftop reception area of the Diplomatic Reception rooms at the State Department on July 4, 2013.

Larkin recently contacted the Grieb’s and relayed in his own words that he had “just met with the Director of the Fine Arts Committee who manages our extensive collection of American art and we are coordinating with her office on an event that the Secretary will be hosting on April 23rd to honor all of the donors to the Diplomatic Reception rooms. We are putting together a wonderful spring-inspired menu for our guests and we are including a specialty cocktail and a sparkling wine as a featured beverage pairing. I instantly thought that the Treveri Rose would be the perfect wine to serve since it will pair with a large variety of foods.”

Treveri has made it a point to assist in promoting the arts regionally with sponsored events for both the Seattle Symphony and the Yakima Symphony.

The diplomatic reception rooms are an impressive sight with a collection of American art, furniture and pieces of collections from past presidents going all the way back to George Washington. On a visit to Washington, D.C. in 2012 with the Washington Wine Commission for a tasting event, the Grieb’s were were given a personal tour and visit of the facility by Mr. Larkin, reporting that one of the highlights “was standing in front of and seeing President George Washington’s official wine glasses and table items.”
