WASHINGTON, D.C. and NAPA VALLEY, Calif. — July 30, 2026 — The White House Historical Association and Declaration Cellars today announced the launch of an exclusive premium wine collection and the 1600 Club, a members-only subscription wine club, created in partnership to commemorate America’s 250th anniversary.

Each release is accompanied by beautifully curated stories that bring White House history into homes across the country, creating meaningful moments around the table with family and friends.
“This partnership with Declaration Cellars is a powerful example of the Association’s commitment to sharing the rich history of the White House in innovative ways,” said Stewart D. McLaurin, president of the White House Historical Association. “Wine has long played a special role in White House life and tradition. As we commemorate America’s Semiquincentennial, this collection brings together exceptional American wines and the stories, traditions, and legacy of the People’s House, offering Americans a unique way to engage with White House history and celebrate our shared ideals of liberty and excellence.”
Elegantly presented with labels inspired by the Association’s historic ornamental designs bearing its signature logo, each bottle reflects a shared commitment to preserving and celebrating America’s history.
The inaugural collection includes:
· Eagle Talon — 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon, California
· Land of the Free — 2021 Chardonnay, Napa Valley
· The Architect — James Hoban Reserve — 2021 Pinot Noir, Russian River Valley, Sonoma
· America's 250 — 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley

Members are automatically enrolled in the WinePlus Loyalty Program, where every qualifying purchase earns valuable rewards and elevated benefits. New members who sign up by Aug. 20, 2026, will receive two stainless steel wine tumblers and a wooden handle wine key as a special welcome gift, as well as free shipping on their first order.
“It is a tremendous honor to collaborate with the White House Historical Association to create wines that honor America’s 250th anniversary,” said Brandon R. Chaney, chief executive officer of Declaration Cellars. “Crafted with premium grapes from California’s finest regions, these wines embody the spirit of excellence and storytelling that defines both our nation’s wine heritage and the legacy of the White House. Through the 1600 Club, we invite enthusiasts to join us in raising a glass to this historic milestone and the stories that unite us.”
Additional releases are planned for Fall 2026, including Lady Liberty Napa Valley Rosé, Eagle Talon Reserve Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, and the highly anticipated Amici della Casa Bianca Napa Valley Super Tuscan.
