And 2018 saw an increase in elected women. For Patti, there is much to talk about and this is a very timely time... So we talk about: The start of her passion for women in politics The vision 1992 - the year of the women - really? 2017 and 'I'm not going to take it anymore' A thick skin and so much more is necessary #MeToo Movement Are passion and a pulse enough?

This week we sit down with the most amazing Kristin Bernard of Côtes de Femme and Patti Russo of the Campaign School at Yale University. About Côtes de Femme A thoughtfully created blend, paired with carefully and sustainably managed land, nurtures the grapes from blossom through production to become our wine. Created with our end goal in mind: to share one of the most beautiful locations on earth with those we love. In order for us to share our love, our laughs, and our time with each other, we need to first create a setting where those memories, smells, tastes of epic adventure are bottled and then brought to your glass. The Notes & Flavors A powerful woman deserves a powerful wine. She greets her rose-gold treasure of 14.5% alcohol which matches her presence and command of her surroundings. This AOP Côtes de Provence rosé in her glass transports her to an outdoor oasis where relaxed, sun-filled shade and refreshing summer breezes express the floral notes of summer through carefree dances. She is surrounded by the notes of honeysuckle covered patios, followed by a feeling of walking through a citrus grapefruit orchard. When she finally tastes her Côtes de Femme, she is met with a feeling of drinking this magical one-of-a-kind rosé right off the vine. She can't help but notice the minerality of the unique terroir where the grapes come to life under the Provençal sun. Like her, the wine has strong layers, structured with velvety tannins, expressing an intellectual depth which invites a longer conversation. Her experience moves her to a time in Southern France where she knew she was untethered by the stresses of her days, allowing her to regroup to lead the day tomorrow. Something to Remember Us It is simply not enough to show up to the party. Life is about the journey, the process, and the flow. A woman starts living her best life as she is planning her outfit, her arrival, and how her presence will set the tone for the event ahead of her. Her evening starts long before she arrives at the destination…just like a bottle of Côtes de Femme. So much thought goes into how classy the packaging is of this cherished being. Smooth curves and shapes. Simple lines and glowing from within. It is easy to see how this woman stands out in a crowd. Côtes de Femme rosé matches the unique, regal presence of the one holding the glass…all the way to the eye-catching jewelry that decorates her neck. Every bottle is adorned with a bracelet, purposefully designed to be removed from the bottle to decorate the stemware of our queen. A Côtes de Femme woman never leaves the house without looking her absolute best! By wearing her diamonds, she becomes one-of-a-kind, she sets herself on a pedestal, poised for LIVING EXTRA.
