This winery doesn’t take itself too seriously – on your way up the road to the “twisted” tasting room, there are wacky signs and rubber chickens in the trees. But the wine? That’s seriously good. They host concerts throughout the year, have great spots to picnic and a basket of toys on the porch, as well as a swing for the kids, so they can play as you

Often I speak about vineyards that when you step through the tasting room doors it feels like you are home. At Mystic Hills Vineyard in Paso Robles you truly are in the home of the owners Joel and Judy Cox. Joel being highly successful in the movie industry as a film editor for the last 40 years and reaching retirement age, he and Judy decided to step into a family dream and pursue their passion of making wines. Both love the Paso Robles region and in 2004 Joel and Judy purchased 14 acres in King Ranch in San Miguel. Neither had experience in growing vines and making wines. But Joel being a perfectionist and with Judy managing the winery and actively taking courses at UC Davis and College of the Canyons to increase her knowledge of viticulture,

Belle Meade’s decision to create a winery was an ingenious way to expand their enterprise. In fact, their success has led to some problems meeting demand. Therefore, the need is present to increase wine sales by expanding their production facility. In addition to collaborating with local restaurants to supply wine, Belle Meade could collaborate with other historical nonprofit organizations to market products and services. According to Furmańska-Maruszak, and Sudolska (2016), a collaborative approach to solving social problems is integral to an innovative strategy, which is vital for survival in the competitive environment. While collaborating with local competitors may sound counterintuitive, collaboration efforts could compete with Louisville,

Last week I have visited Chamber Street Wines located at 148 Chambers Street in Manhattan. They opened in June 2001, by David Lillie and Jamie Wolff. According to their webpage they opened the store with idea that, “New York might support a shop that indulged their love for naturally made wines from artisanal small producers. “When I walked in the store I saw an employee at the register. He was very friendly and asked me if I need any help in choosing anything in the store, I have explained that I came to visit from my Wine and Beverage class and he was very kind to take his time to explain to me how everything was set in the store. Behind their counter they had different types of liquor such as Vodka, Whiskey, Coniacs, Rum, Tequila and more.

Welcome to the wine cellar business. As Production Manager of the Fine Wine Rack Co., you

With the global wine industry expected to generate almost $292 billion in 2014, Wine production and its supply chain are no doubt big business. The supply chain involved from a growing grape to an uncorked bottle is one that involves many intricate details. Because of the popularity of wine, grapes are in fact the largest fruit crop on Earth. But that is not indicative of the complex and interlacing processes that are necessary to grow the proper grape for wine production. Proper weather conditions, the right mixture of soil, and balanced pruning are just the tip of the iceberg in just the first step of the entire wine supply chain. These same grapes that have been tended to as if they were patrons of a restaurant having their own fine glass are then picked and crushed only to be placed into containers to begin the next step of their journey. A long series of processes including, cold soaks, must adjustments, adjustments, fermentation, and yeast addition are where complex science and agriculture join forces. In a scene worthy of a science fiction movie in a mad scientist’s labratory, these grapes slowly become wine. Finished product can be bottled or transferred in bulk to its next destination but will eventually land in a glass where a final customer enjoys the fruits of all the labor involved in this harmony of moving parts.
