The Farm Winery - a GSB Brand

If any of you have had the luck of taking Base Accounting with Becky Lester you have probably heard about "The Farm Winery". It's a winery founded by Santiago Achaval, a world-renowned wine-maker with 3 of his classmates (one of them his wife) from the GSB.
The brand makes a nod to the GSB, the place where the founders met and developed their interest in wine. While none of the wines is specifically named after the GSB or Stanford (branding issues) The Farm is a reference to our school, and all of their names are related to the GSB.
Some of the names include "LPF", "The Big Game" and "The Dish". My personal favorite is  "Touchy- Feely", a blend of Grenache and Syrah they describe as "wine lighter than air; it elevates".

The wines are a little bit pricier than at least my regular dinner wine, but I believe every GSBer should try at least once, if only for the nostalgia.
