This Sunday, team Murphy-Goode is going to be drinking Zins, grilling out, and celebrating our beloved Minnesota Vikings crushing defeat of the New Orleans Saints.  Yes, that’s right-  a crushing defeat.  Murphy-Goode’s roots reach back to a love for the Minnesota Vikings-  So much so, that our labels are purple and gold, our tasting room is decked out in Vikings helmets, and our winemaker mysteriously disappears during game time.  I seem to recall him saying, “A Vikings win makes the grapes grow better”–  Judging by this season, our 2009 vintage could be a classic.

So apologies to our friends in the Big Easy, but there’s always next season. ;)
