Share via

Want to cap your Cabernet in style? Buy an authentic coonskin topper from Davy Crockett himself. The furry bottle closers, handmade of genuine raccoon fur, are on sale at the Fess Parker Winery and Vineyard for $10. (There are coonskin caps suitable for human wear, too, but they’re made from rabbit fur: $13.) Actor/winery-owner Parker, who immortalized the famous frontiersman on television and in the movies, debuted in the role on Dec. 12, 1954. Most weekends, he’s out of the saddle and in the winery signing bottles. The winery is at 6200 Foxen Canyon Road, Los Olivos, Calif. 93441; or call (800) 841-1104.
