Now in its sixth vintage, the wine has gone from obscurity that only a few "insiders" knew about, to becoming a wine that fans of big, well-balanced red wines are asking for by name. Rocket Science was one of the early incarnations of unusual blends that paved the way for such wines as "The Prisoner" and Atrea's "Old Soul Red".]]></description>
