Ohio wine ‘quality seal’: a good idea?
Ohio wine officials are poised to unveil its brand new Ohio Quality Wines Program, and I’m interested in hearing the thoughts of those who make Ohio wines, as well as those who drink them. Check out this Wines & Vines story entitled “Ohio to Unveil Wine Quality Seal” for additional detail.
Certainly, one advantage to the quality “seals” is that the consumer will know the grapes that produced the wine were Ohio-grown (or at least 90 percent Ohio-grown). Even at the Ohio WineFest held in Dayton a couple of weeks ago, many wines served were bottled in Ohio from juice or grapes brought in from elsewhere — California, New York and other wine-producing areas. Some were quite good, but when I attend an Ohio WineFest, I kinda expect to be tasting wines grown and produced in Ohio.
What do you think of the Ohio Quality Wines seal?
