If not, why? The summer wine festival season is heating up in just a month, and this promises to be a good one. Even better, there shouldn't be any awful Indiana humidity that early.

The basic facts, from the website:

When: April 25, 2009 – 12:30-7:00 pm

Where: Under three tents at the Old Barn, Story Inn. 6404 S. SR 135, 13 miles south of Nashville, IN. Click here for directions.

Admission: Only $15.00 in advance BUY TICKETS HERE! $20 at the gate. Admission also buys a Story Inn wine glass keepsake, several gifts and a chance to win prizes!.

Parking is free, dress is casual, and the event will go on, rain or shine!

WEATHER IS NOT A FACTOR. All tasting will be under shelter.

This promises to be another great event. I could write more, but there is already this great article written by Barbara Keck over at WineBizNews.

Well, I do not think having about half the wineries in Indiana there constitutes having nearly all of them there. Its a good turn-out, but the comment is very misleading.

This is a money-making venture for Story. If you like this sort of thing go, otherwise go to Vintage Indiana or your local winery.

Well, semantics-wise, there's a lot of ways to read the comment about the number of wineries that will be there. Still, I will try to find out who has confirmed.

As to this being a money making venture, so? This is a business after all. The question I have is if the wineries can benefit from it.

I would like to go, but am not yet sure if my schedule will allow it. But, then again, it doesn't take much to get me to a wine fest.

We're looking forward to our 4th visit to the wine fair. It's a lot of fun and laughs. You get to sample and choose from a lot of different wines that you'd never see without a lot of travel. I recommend this to anyone that enjoys a glass of wine.
