In subsequent panels, I listened to scientist after scientist looking for answers to global warming solely in technology. Plant any grape where you want and use technology to deal with the consequences. That seems obvious. | ALICE FEIRING APRIL 23, 2008 Alice Feiring - In Vino Veritas Thats how it has been for 9,000 years, but over the past two decades, myriad technologies and lab tricks have turned that typical weeknight bottle into the potable equivalent of cake from a mix. If tales like that sound familiar, you may recall Mondovino, the 2004 Jonathan Nossiter documentary about globalization in the wine industry. | ALICE FEIRING MAY 12, 2008 Alice Feiring - In Vino Veritas and "California promotes wines that dont suck" Um.since when did fresh herbs become weird?!
