The wines came from the Napa Valley in California, Columbia Valley in Washington State and a sparkling wine which came from Virginia. This certainly represents an interesting mix and I am sure went splendidly with the caviar and Colorado ribeye. Perhaps Monsieur Hollande felt out of his comfort zone although apparently Obama said that Americans love all things French, assuming they know where France is!! I hope Mr Cameron takes note and serves him a top quality English sparkling wine which will be assumed to be a superior Champagne although I bet our naughty little Frenchman will not know the difference!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_small with_line width_default thick_1 style_solid color_border align_center\"><div class=\"w-separator-h\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_text_column\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div>\n<div class=\"c9 \">\n<p>Researchers at Texas University have found that those who do not drink any alcohol have a higher mortality rate than those who drink heavily.
