Sunset was one of the original six wines crafted by Roger and Judy Furrow in 2001. In the beginning, it held the distinction as being the only sweet wine on the wine list and its ‘recipe’ has remained unchanged for nearly two decades. Why mess with a good thing! Sunset’s most notable virtue is that it earned the first, and currently only, Platinum medal.
