(www.GrapeVineTrail.com) - All eyes, ears and lips have been on Riesling in recent weeks, following a major conference in Washington state called the “Riesling Rendezvous.” Winemakers at St. Julian Winery in Paw Paw, Michigan – the state’s oldest and largest winery – say such national and international interest reinforces what they’ve been successfully producing for years.

Traveling Vineyard - Who are we?

I have had some emails from some readers interested in finding out what are company actually does, so I thought I would give you all a semi- brief synopsis.

The Traveling Vineyard operates in half of the states in the US. We are revolutionizing the wine tasting experience because we are turning living rooms into tasting rooms. Do not get me wrong- NOTHING beats a wine tasting at a vineyard, but there are many reasons why we can't always find a way to get to a vineyard. For instance, If you live in Allentown, PA. and want to try all italian wines and you can't get 10 friends to Tuscany, Italy or even Santa Barbara...try 5 of TTV's italian wines or California wines in your living room! See?

Pioneering spirit thrives on Michigan's newest wine trail

By Kim Schneider
JACKSON -- The weekend it opened, Sandhill Crane Vineyards outgrew its tasting room.

What owners thought would be a small seasonal retirement job drew overflow crowds for its first event. Taking home gold medals at the State Fair, the first summer in operation (and then the next), didn't help keep the secret.
