Five New Year’s Wine Resolutions for 2009
1. Drink Well, Drink Local
In 2008, I blogged about “Food/Drink Miles” as applied to wine selection. In 2009, I reconfirm that I will drink well, but drink more locally produced wine. This action may help to reduce my wine cooler’s carbon footprint a tad. But, more importantly it will help support our struggling local economy as well as the winemakers in Texas that are making great strides with each vintage. I also hope that people in other states will do the same. Remember – Each bottle of wine from New Zealand has more than 23 times the carbon footprint of a bottle of Texas wine.
