H is for Hybrid Wines (aka Two are Better than One)


Have you ever visited New York City, London or Tokyo and said, "What a great city, I bet I could make it here!" Then you move there by yourself and suddenly you’re overwhelmed by subway maps, "agonising" over funny spellings and inundated with big-eyed animé characters. And you realize you’re not thriving in this new environment, you're barely hanging on, so before you wither and die there, you pack your bags and move back to where you came from.

That’s how it was for wines.

PLEASE NOTE:
This Blog post has been removed.

However you can find it, and more, in my book collection of wine stories called Evolution of a Wine Drinker available at Amazon.com.

Thanks!

  1. This was so interesting! I never knew any of that about the history of grapes in America. (Stopping by from the A to Z Challenge!)

  2. Hi Katie!
    Thanks for reading and for your comment! Wine in America is fascinating because of it's a cross-section of taste, food, agriculture, pests and culture. Thanks for stopping by! Happy A-Zing!
