The United States Is In The Middle of a Golden Age of Wine!
- Americans are drinking more wine than ever before. Per capita consumption is at a record high after 11 straight years of growth.
- The percentage of "core" consumers, who drink wine at least once a week, has grown 38 percent since 2000.
- Wine tasting has never been so popular!

Grapevines love the midwest soil. They also like rolling hills with water far below, but within reach. Finally, wind is essential. Brisk winds keep unwanted intruders away. These are all the ingredients for growing grapes that make award-winning wine.
This is Nebraska, and it is wine country.
