John Legend has received the ultimate achievement having been the youngest recipient of an EGOT and now he adds to his legendary resume with the introduction of his sparkling rosé wine from the LVE, Legend Vineyard Exclusive Collection.
On behalf of sbe, guests were invited to an intimate brunch at the award-winning Cleo Third Street restaurant located within The Orlando Hotel in West Hollywood at the epicenter of Los Angeles’ shopping and dining scene. Diners went on a culinary journey as they explored the Mediterranean inspired cuisine which included ricotta waffles with nutella ganache, mixed berries, and crème fraiche as well as their avocado toast topped with cilantro, feta, pickled shallots, and radish.
Attendees were able to refresh their palette with LVE Rosé which also paired brilliantly with the assortment of oysters from the east and west coast. The Legend Vineyard Exclusive was a dream long time in the making. Legend had to ensure he was working with the right collaborator, a vineyard that was in pursuit of the perfect blend and standards of excellence that matched his own. At last, with diligent research, Legend met his match with Raymond Vineyards. Raymond is widely hailed as one of Napa Valley’s pre-eminent producers, sustainable wine growing leaders, and one of the wine world’s most dynamic and luxurious winery destinations. The timeless collaboration brings together classic elegance, rich complexity and modern soul that all wine lovers can respect and enjoy.
