Aside from "driving to Altus on Highway 23 " being physically impossible, pretty good article.

I'm not sure I share the enthusiasm for the Big Daddy port (though I have had it), but appreciated the note on Post's wonderful Munson.

a port worth noting is Robert Cowie's, on over in Paris

Lots of luck trying to find any of these on a restaurant wine list around Little Rock. Why is it that the local hospitality industry won't even carry any Arkansas wines....especially the spots likely to get out-of-state tourist visitors?
