Very nice report. I grew up in the Midwest ...Kyle,<br /><br />Very nice report. I grew up in the Midwest and the first wines that I tried and liked were made from hybrid or native grapes--Norton, Chambourcin, Traminette, Seyval Blanc, even Concord. I agree with you in that sweet wines do play an important part in the wine industry. Many beginning wine drinkers are turned off by dry and tannic wines but love the easily approachable sweet wines. Over time, their tastes often (though not always)<br />change/progress to the point that they prefer dry over sweet. I started off drinking sweet wines--although I rarely drink them now, they were "gateway wines" that started me off on my wine drinking path.<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />NickNick Webbhttp://www.winespeakusa.comnoreply@blogger.com
