The Dude Imbibes
Duuuude. Chill. You're totally harshin' my mellow. You're all going on about some mystical dark fruit character, blueberries and plums and whatnot. And I'm just sitting here, aging gracefully, staring up at the stars. The starrrsss, Man. They're like … out there. When I squint like this, I swear I can see some strange little dude dancing on the moon. But when I open them wide like this, he's gone. It's SO weird! Hahaha!
Come here. No seriously, Man. Lean it real close. I'm gonna tell you the secret of life. You ready? It's mushrooms, Dude. I KNOW, right? Mushrooms, and herbs, and moderate tannins. They're the background notes that make the earth go round. Peace, love and freshly roasted espresso and whatnot. You smellin' what the Dude is layin' down? Yeah. Me too, Man. Meeeee too.

Armando Hernandez, originally from Mexico and now living in San Antonio, Texas, started Dignus One from a tremendous passion for wine and a desire to make his own mark on the wine industry. Armando originally hired world renowned winemaker Alberto Antonini to create the Dignus One line of wines. Since then Armando has branched out on his own, developing vineyards and a winery in Texas. He gladly shares these wines with you, hoping you get as much enjoyment out of them as he did in making them.
The team behind the Dignus project includes a familiar face - Derek, the winemaker for Emery Estate and the Woot favorite 'Unbridled' Cabernet. He understands two of our favorite things - Cabernet and QPR, so we're happy that he brought this wine to us.
