Funny name and label is actual historical artifact: diving horse is an attraction that was popular in North America in the mid-1880s, in which a horse would be dropped into a pool of water, sometimes from as high as 60 feet. Whether it's a feeling of stomach dropping when you do something in your own way or reference to a theatre of absurd which our life is - we love this wine!
Aged for 19 months in 1350L Austrian oak barrels, this Blaufrankish has deep violet color, notes of blackberries and an intense smoky, herbal savouriness. Spicy finish also!
