I'm skipping to the end of our trip to Ontario because I think you will love this story. We went to Exultet Estates to see how Gerry, Lia and their sons Mario and Joseph were doing since we last saw them on April 15th, 2012. During that visit, Mario and Joseph gifted us with their 2011 bottling called Knucklehead Red, which we shared with our friends over the summer.
When we went back to their tasting room, they remembered us and it was nice to be so warmly greeted. While I was catching up with Lia, Mario and Joseph presented Gary with another one of their bottlings. We learned that they only made 6 cases of their 2011 Knucklehead Red. Of all of the wines that we have in our possession or have already imbibed, Knucklehead Red is the rarest of them all. We told Mario and Joseph that the previous bottle that we've already consumed made it to our wall of fame, so this is for you, Mario and Joseph!
More about our visit to Exultet Estates and Prince Edward County (PEC) will be forthcoming in a future blog.
