R. H. Phillips 1999 Cab

I stopped at the Hogue winery a few weeks after it changed hands, and quietly asked one of the pour staff if there were any major changes in the offing. The nice lady who was pouring said things were unchanged, the winemakers were making wine, the grapes came from the same place, the paychecks still came on the same day.
Good enough for me, so I happily bought a case of mis-marked SW's to pass out as gifts and hightailed it. (Sem-Chard blend, labels were incorrect for export, returned to the winery and selling in the tasting room for $36 a case. More deals like this, please.)
