I saw this small production CF recently for $35 and I have never heard of the winery. Anyone have any TN's or info about them? If I am not mistaken this particular bottling has a total production of between 300-400 cases. Thx. IW

Did you ever try this wine? I have one I'm thinking of pulling out tonight...

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is .ps - friends don't let friends eat farmed salmon.

2001 Smith Wooton Napa Valley Cab Franc Gallagher's Vineyard purchased in Napa last January stored in the cellar since left in open bottle for several hours before trying bright purple to deep ruby in color plums, currants and smoky spice refreshing with a medium-weight supple body and a good finish nicely balanced overall but not terribly 'meaty' still a very agreeable wine won't last too long
