From Matthew:

At Matthew Rorick Wines, we love the longshots. We love the outsiders, the lost causes, the people/projects/ideas abandoned as not having a chance in the world. We love the longshots because we're all about tenacity, we relish a challenge, and we admit it we love us a good tussle.

Hans Brinker, the Dutch boy who stuck his finger in the dike? We're big fans of his. Penelope weaving all day and ripping it out all night? She's with us. Henry V's speech at the Battle of Agincourt? Pretty much our theme song.

Taken from the Dutch 'verloren hoop', meaning 'lost troop', Forlorn Hope was the name given to the band of soldiers who volunteered to lead the charge directly into enemy defenses. The chance of success for the Forlorn Hope was always slim, but the glory and rewards granted to survivors ensured no shortage of applicants.

These bottles, the first produced by Matthew Rorick Wines, were our headlong rush into the breach. Rare creatures from appellations unknown and varieties uncommon, these wines are our brave advance party, our pride and joy our Forlorn Hope.
