Grapes


     Can you believe that, even though wine sales are hurting, wineries are laying off workers, Winebusiness.com says hopeful investors opened 122 more wineries in the United States in 2009?

      As the cliché goes, it’s a triumph of hope over experience.

      It’s also surprising to see that California has fewer than half of the wineries in the U.S. Only 49 percent. There are 10 other states that have over 100 wineries each.
