A few years ago, I raved about Fess Parker's Frontier Red. I tried the Lot 61 and loved it (link to the post here). It was arguably one of the best budget wines I had ever tried. Then came along Lot 71. I was not a fan at all. The blend just seemed off. To me, it felt like it was missing something. This year, Fess Parker re-discovered the magic of lot 61. The new vintage- Frontier Red Lot 91, is great. It's well balanced, smooth, with a great start and a fantastic finish. It's a perfect sipping wine.
It's not the easiest wine to find, so put it on your list and keep a look out at your local wine store. If you are lucky enough to find it, pick up a bottle and give it a try. I'm curious to hear what you think. I'm truly hoping that Fess Parker can hold onto the quality they've brought forward in this years Frontier Red. If so, they have a customer for life!
Recommendation: Definitely buy it (if you can find it)
To make people become truly educated people, must have three qualities: the knowledge, the habit of thinking and noble sentiment. Knowledge is not foolish, Not accustomed to thinking, is rude or stupid, No lofty sentiment, is humble.Do you think so?
