The Rest of the story of Fortunate Son… Chapter III by Jayson Woodbridge

The first wine, The Dreamer, is Cabernet Sauvignon, and as all of you know I do not like to describe wines as I leave this to the professionals. I will say that this wine is dark and brooding, a wine of elegance, fine and structured tannins, and basically the wine-equivalent of a Wagner piece on a stormy night after unexpectedly making an enormous sum of money. In other words, it is fucking pure magic with rock bloody solid complexity on a very high level.

The Diplomat is what the government calls a “Red Wine” as it is a combination of varietals and what I refer to as a 21st Century Claret, which apparently you cannot call it due to some EU bullshit that Washington idiots agreed to with the French bureaucratic heathen. Never-the-Less the wine is power, intricacy and elegance combined.

This is a wine which Winston Churchill would have been drinking whilst insulting Hitler or some pandering moron. The wine is dark and rich and is not for the faint of heart, if you are looking for a light table wine, go away, quickly…this is wine for drinking, eating and making love. The wine may induce amorous feeling towards others so only enjoy with very close friends.

The Warrior is just that. Pure, total power and darkness. Be careful as you may like it too much and it could put you in the mood to tell people what you really think. It again is not for the faint of heart it is for those with a will of steel and determination to match. This is a wine for people that admire subtle elegance and not-so-subtle power. “Walk softly but carry a big stick,” if you know what I mean.

All of the wines have one of my favorite quotes which are directly related to their characters, the quotes will change every vintage. You will understand when you read them.

Please remember, this wine is made in extremely small quantities and will be gone very quickly, I will be closing this offering in very short order as we have enormous global demand and of course nothing happens till the Hundred Acre clients speak. Membership does indeed have its privileges as they say.

Fortunate Son is absolute quality, made in the same style and same way as Hundred Acre, and side by side with Hundred Acre barrels underground in The Ring winery. I am not fucking around here this is serious wine and only for those who love elegance and power woven into a single creation.

Fortunate Son can be served at a business dinner to torture your enemies at nearby tables who will be drinking some highly predictable wine they read about in some glossy magazine two pages over from the latest article about some goofy rockstar who suddenly decided to start making rose or some other dreadful plonk. They will stare in your direction just wishing they had a brain.
