In conferences dominated by scientists, biodynamics in particular provokes sneers, but Jose Ramon Lissarague a professor of viticulture in Madrid said he agreed.

| WINE TASTING GUY SEPTEMBER 22, 2008 NYC has a what??? a WINERY????$%^& Forgetting for a second about tonight's amazing speaker, what i really want to discuss is, what's the deal with the CITY WINERY anyway??? Although I was late, I did make it to the event at the City Winery this evening. It was a well attended event and it was great to see some friends and familiar faces there.
