Coat of the Roan

[Innkeeper]

Has anyone had or even heard of a new wine from Phil Staley called Coat of the Roan? It is not on his website, and Wine-Searcher and Google have not heard of it. My winebroaker Craig, who has never given me a bum steer, and who has sold me enough Marietta Old Vine Red Lot XX to float the Missouri, says the Staley wine is better. Can guess, but don’t know what grapes are in it. It sells for $12, has an alcohol level of 14.5% and the vintage is “Foal One.” If I don’t hear from anybody, after a rest of ten days or so, will pop one and let you know.
