"I wonder if anywhere else on earth has a 100-mile Zen garden of fruit just begging to be explored. A Lost World of wine. The young farmers will find it. And the young romantics will follow. And then everyone else who is young or old and aching to be immersed in a place that rises up and floods the senses in its own unmistakable flavor." - @yankeemagazine
Rowan Jacobsen (link in bio) -- your books are wonderful. If all goes well maybe the story of Maine #wildblueberrywine will want to be written in a decade? @bluetbubbles@ras_wines ...next?

Here we go now! It all started with @crushdistributors selling 300 bottles of Bluet in Maine in 2015...and today we meet to discuss with a dozen panelists (growers, makers, writers, distributors, researchers) how to build an industry of sparkling wild blueberry wine here in Maine. Starts at noon Eastern today and if you wish to attend, register free with the link in our bio. If you miss it we'll share a video later.
Thank you to the 100s of stores and restaurants in Maine, MA, NY, CA who dig Bluet and believe in this with us - www.bluet.me/map
Thank you to the many journalists who see why this is good: @rayisle@mfpols@aglium@ericasimov@rowanjacobsen
Thank you to the growers we work with in Appleton, Hope, Blue Hill: the Boyingtons, Nash's, Beardsworths.
Thank you @edlutjens@sweetfoxxs77
Now let's go make great wild blue wine! 🫐
I had trouble focusing too... that's the 2002 and the first Obsidian Ridge Cabernet we made. A lovely wine for a lovely evening with my valentine HH♥️.
I was checking out tanks for @bluetbubbles and came across this beautiful piece of machinery and now I have a strong desire to make olive oil. Talk me down please! It's for sale. Cheap.
