Wine

Wine has accompanied the dinner table for at least 8,000 years, making it one of humanity's oldest and most enduring agricultural traditions. From the vineyards of the Caucasus and the Mediterranean to the valleys and hillsides of North America, generations of growers have discovered that grapes have an extraordinary ability to reflect the place where they are grown. This sense of place—often called terroir—is part of what makes every bottle unique.

Whether red, white, rosé, or sparkling, wine begins with carefully tended grapes harvested at just the right moment. The grape variety, local climate, soil, and the winemaker's craft all contribute to the finished wine's character, creating flavors that may range from bright and crisp to rich and full-bodied. Wine has long been enjoyed alongside food, where it complements everything from artisan cheeses and roasted meats to fresh seafood, seasonal vegetables, and simple country bread.

Many small wineries produce limited quantities of handcrafted wines using grapes grown in nearby vineyards, allowing each vintage to tell the story of a particular growing season.
