NAPA, CA--(Marketwire - March 24, 2010) - The 2008 Modus Operandi Sauvignon Blanc was poured as the first course wine at President Obama's first State Dinner which hosted the Prime Minister of India Manmohan Singh. The menu for the historical event was prepared with the help of guest chef, Marcus Samuelsson of New York's Aquavit restaurant. Having its Napa Valley wine served at the White House is a huge prestige booster to Modus Operandi Cellars which can be considered the boutique of boutiques producing an extremely small collection of rare wines where thoughtful winemaking and superior quality are the standard.
Jason Moore, the company's founder and Winemaker has the following to say about his winemaking process: "The small size of my production coupled with the enormous size of my passion allows me the pleasure of giving my wines the most intimate care possible."
Thanks to that philosophy and passion, Modus Operandi wines have recently received high praises from Wine Enthusiast, and similar wine review entities. All wines reviewed scored tightly together with two ranking at 93 points and one at 92.
Modus Operandi, a California wine producer was founded with our first vintage in 2004 by winemaker/partner Jason Moore, and business partners, Robert Rogel, Steve Vargas, Dr. Myun Han, and Akira Higa all of whom invested in the vision and passion of a Dallas waiter turned Napa Valley winemaker. The name, Modus Operandi is a Latin phrase meaning "method of operation" or the way in which one does something.
Wines from Modus Operandi Cellars are available through the company's website at www.moduswines.com but with less than 1,000 cases produced per year, the White House exposure, great scores, and the apparent passion behind the brand, those thousand cases are sure to go fast!
Modus also has a unique wine club which offers, in addition to the flagship wines, the single vineyard wines used to create the unique flagship blends.
