Pear Wine
in Celebrate Wine, on April 19, 2007
This sounds really yummy - pear wine from Oregon. I remember my grandfather used to send us pears and apples from the northeast. They came in a box and each piece of fruit was wrapped carefully with paper so it wouldn't bruise. You normally think of grapes when it comes to wine, but of course...

Reality Wine TV
in Celebrate Wine, on October 25, 2006
Reality TV shows are so popular these days. I'm not normally a big fan of them, though it kind of depends. I love Project Runway , even with the silly drama at times. Another type of reality show I've liked in the past are those on public broadcasting stations where they have people from...

Many Puget Sound citizens may not know about the huge wine industry in their own back yard. Heck, I bet your average person in general when asked what areas of the United States make the most wine will be hard pressed to come up with a decent answer after first picking California.

Vineyards Get Sheepish
in Celebrate Wine, on October 2, 2006
There is a lot of similarity between regular farm work, like growing hay, and vineyards where you grow grapes. Both require a lot of up keep and manual labor. Now, some grape growers are learning a thing or two from old farming techniques when it comes to keeping down the weeds.

Connecticut Cuts into Wine Making
in Celebrate Wine, on September 23, 2006
New England in general is not known for it's wine making. In fact, neither is Connecticut, but this is starting to change as more and more people jump on the wine making band wagon.
While Connecticut is definitely not the first place I think of when it comes to wine making or vineyards, I...
EU Vineyards Get Ripped
in Celebrate Wine, on September 19, 2006

But, ripping out vineyards seems like a pretty extreme measure.
