Hello All!

In yesterday's New York Times, there was a section on Nova Scotia
mentioning wines and tours of vineyards. I'd never heard of such things
and I wonder if anyone has tried those wines?

It's news to me, too, Jim. Another side-effect of global warming?

Visting Nova Scotia last summer, our group of four visited "Domaine de
Grand Pre" vineyards near Wolfville, NS. Very hot day (+100 degrees), had
very nice luch and sampled a few of their wines in their tasting room. Did
not take tour due to heat and time constraints. Bought one bottle (750 ml.)
of "Castel Vintner's Reserve 2007" and a bottle (375 ml.) of "Pomme d'Or", a
desert "wine." Enjoyed the Pomme d'Or over the Xmas holidays this past
December. Have yet to open the Castel. Here is a link to information on
vineyards in Nova Scotia: http://www.winesofnovascotia.ca/index.php
