Look at you! I like your trimwork. Did you do it, or is that original to the house?

Open horn, for sound quality. (For me anyway)

Red wine: USA or Europe? (I am not picking a specific grape, just your experience and your favorite).

That window is original. I built these doors and their frames to match, however.
