The Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station, the Connecticut Farm Wine Development Council, the USDA Risk Management Agency, and the University of Rhode Island are hosting a viticulture and enology workshop on Tuesday, November 13 at the Hilton Hotel in Mystic, CT. We will have some of the preeminent scientists in the field gathered for a project meeting, and we are unlikely to have such a “dream team” assembled in New England in the foreseeable future, so I hope we get a good turnout for such a unique event. The speakers have well over 100 years of combined experience in viticulture and enology. I strongly encourage multiple representatives from vineyards and wineries.
