A Drop in the Bathtub....

Oh, how we've grown in the USA!  Was a time when a good dry wine was a hard sell in our country.  Truth is that we had a lot of catching up to do after (cringe!) Prohibition.

Back then we had spent years chocking down the home-made bathtub wines that were allowed under the law.  And you can bet that the sales of sugar went thru the roof.
So when Repeal came along the Nation just thought wine was supposed to be sweet.

Thankfully we are moving away from that notion and have a very good selection of not so sweet wines to choose from.  Yet we are still finding our way forward to discover where we do best here in the USA.  The debate over New World vs. Old World wine styles continues. 

The point is not to get stuck in your ideas about wine.  The fun part is exploring new horizons!
