News Update: Jim won a gold in 2007 for his White Blend
(Queen's)!! Way to go. We had lots of winners in 2007 and appreciate
their support!
I won a gold metal at New York State Fair for Riesling, and a bronze for the white blend! Every thing that won came from your wine
shop; from carboys and chemicals to juice.
Thanks for your support and the education you provided.
