Rias Baixas, Galicia

Niagara County, New York

Dormant vineyards just below the Niagara Escarpment in Western New York. Great potential.

Oberrotweil am Kaiserstuhl, Deutschland

Ok, so I'm visiting Weingut Salwey in the Baden region of Germany and I can't help but kick a pine cone, a favorite toy of the house lab, over and over again.

Self-made display to promote artisinal Lambrusco. I carried four different labels from Cleto Chiarli and they sold well. Superb, classic food wines and reasonably priced.
