I don't go out of my way to get it, indeed the day just blew right by this year. I do like to have it home for the holiday though, we will sometimes have people over who just really don't get good wines and actually prefer it, and there's no sense wasting a great bottle of wine on people who will sip it and just run their finger around the glass after that (it tastes too grapey, it's not fruity like we like).

One of the people who own a winery when we first tasted it said to us what do you taste? I said grapes. He smiled and said that's the taste he was going after, not chocolate covered tobacco grass
