Stevey went home a very tired man, and over the winter of 2004/2005 the interior of the tasting room was done by myself. Oak floors and white pine interior walls and ceilings were selected to give a high class yet rustic feel to the tasting room. To go into the one year battle with federal and state paperwork would need another blog. The paperwork process if nothing else weens away all but those totally committed to entering the wine business. To be fair the State Liquor Authority personnel that I dealt with were notably efficient and helpful within the system under which they have to operate. The best way to describe this pre-launch stage of the winery was like trying to cook 20 meals on 20 stoves in 20 different houses across town. As we approached April of 2005 we got ready to open the doors for the first time.........
