    A little BG on how this happened. My dad is from El Llano. When MTK posted a pict of the wine called El Llano, I mentioned it to one of my cousins from Napa how cool that someone named a wine after this little town where my dads family was from. My cousin goes "Oh yeah, the winemaker and my dad are really close friends.. so my uncle (who's worked for various wineries throughout the years) and cousin arranged this great gesture. I took my dad and turns out that he knew Rolando's dad and family and it was great hearing stories from the old days.
    It was a great experience trying out some amazing wines from such humble beginnings.
