A “blink and you’ll miss it kind of town”, Gulnare, CO (pronounced Gul-ner) sits in the Apishapa River Valley- a place we’d never heard of until driving through the area. Originally named Abeyton, the post office (for some reason that we cannot find) required the town to change its name. Local residents were asked to provide suggestions, which were collected and placed into an envelope mailed to the postal service headquarters in Washington. None of the names suggested were chosen, but the envelope in which all of the suggestions were placed had a drawing of a cow named the “Princess of Gulnare” on it. Who was this princess? Lady Gulnare was a champion Hereford from Europe, in theory brought to enhance the local cattle industry. For whatever reason, the postal service clearly liked the drawing or name or both and chose it as the new name for the town. One of the few buildings in town, the Gulnare School was opened in 1948, but has been vacant since being closed many years ago. #cowtown #colorfulcolorado #abandonedplaces #apishapavalley #coloradohistory #tinsheets

Help us support the National Canine Cancer Foundation! Many of you generously purchased our miniature stuffed Finley Dogs, Mini Finnies, after Finley was diagnosed with cancer and we can't thank you enough! We still have a few dozen left and with Finley gone, we’d love to see these guys go to loving homes rather than sit in our closet, so we are selling the remaining ones with all proceeds being donated to the National Canine Cancer Foundation. Please join us in support of canine cancer research, so that someday no one will have to suffer this same loss. Link to purchase in bio. #GivingTuesday #caninecancersucks #finewinecanine #tinsheets

Today’s installment of “things that have been in Saxby’s mouth” includes: the TV remote, a tree branch (brought inside), an Apple Watch taken directly from its charger, dishes from out of the sink, a tomato, a freshly washed t-shirt, a bottle of hand soap, burnt wood from the fireplace, and both of our iPhones (again). #doihaveyourattentionpeople #theredrascal #finewinecaninetoo #tinsheets

About Us

Two winemakers from Colorado and their Fine Wine Canine travel the open road searching for the remnants from a time when America’s greatest love was the car and road trips were a way of life.
