Knucklehead Red---It's a Family Endeavor

When we went to Exultet Winery on Prince Edward County, we were surprised, delighted and quite honored to receive from Mario and Joseph, a bottle of their 2011 vintage called Knucklehead Red. We wanted to feature the wine with the appropriate meal and that event occurred recently, when our friend invited us over for a dinner of aged beef tenderloin. We disguised the wine in a brown paper bag and asked our friends to guess what it was. One of our friends correctly guessed that it was Pinot noir grape, but nice and clean. The color was a clear and sparkling garnet in the glass. When it was revealed that the wine was indeed Pinot noir, but made by two boys under the age of 12, our friend said he would like to be on the wine list for future efforts from the Knucklehead brand. We all enjoyed the wine! I think that it just goes to show that you don't need to know the science or the technology of making wine, you just have to have the passion and the love, to make delicious, honest wine. Mario and Joseph, you have fans! We are looking forward to your future releases!
