Founded and still owned by the Sterling family, Iron Horse is an icon of California sparkling wine. This compelling Russian River Cuvée, a blend of three-quarters Pinot Noir along with Chardonnay, was created to be served during the Reagan-Gorbachev summit in 1985 that arguably signaled the end of the Cold War. A creamy texture balances and enhances its power. Pop the cork to celebrate something — like Wednesday night — and then take the bottle to the table because its stature enhances most anything there.
