Red Caboose Winery Expands To Clifton
Gary McKibben of Red Caboose Winery outlines a five year plan to move part of the company to Clifton, with a small winery, Italian restaurant, and a European style hotel on 16.03 acres.

The winery cites a growing Texas market with 192 wineries in 2005 and RCW’s medals including a 2007 Pacific Rim silver.
