In the 1970's I toured the Beringer Winery and was very impressed with the limestone caves they had there. Since that time I've toured many of the other wineries and loved the one at Sterling that I toured with my daughter and her husband. I've gotten a bit tipsy from all the tasting...and used up all my Christmas money one year buying vino! :-) The "neatest" vineyard so far that I've toured was one in the Holy Land...and I tasted some wine from Cana. Thanks for the interesting question. jdh2690@gmail.comJan Houglandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00253192243976154166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575273532904617281.post-15119426824552712432014-10-21T19:51:09.179-04:002014-10-21T19:51:09.179-04:00I can't believe there are wineries in Florida!...I can't believe there are wineries in Florida!
