And then there's the world famous "Hiney Wine" "the only wine that comes in a can." It was an old radio show joke 25 years ago but the one locals (I grew up near Walla Walla) has made it real: http://www.wallawallahiney.com BTW, for the wine aficionados here the grapes grown in the area are considered superior to Bordeaux grapes because of a longer growing season. In fact when leaving my TTC we drove through the Bordeaux country and I was amazed how much it looked like the western Oregon (Walla Walla though is in eastern Washington). The award winning Woodward Canyon Cabernet is fantastic and expensive (I went to school with Rick Small who founded the winery). And for a great Merlot get the Waterbrook Merlot if you can find it and it is expensive too. I walked into a local gourmet wine shop a few years back and asked if they had it and they all stood at attention with the "this guy knows his wines" look. :-D http://www.woodwardcanyon.com http://www.waterbrook.com/ Of course if you're really a wine aficionado you already know all this. ;-)
