When visiting wineries in your region ask about terroir, grape varieties, vineyard management and wine\/winery history. Also discover which states have designated wine months.<\/p>\n<p>Wine lovers who want to celebrate drink local wine and not attending this 2013 conference can choose this weekend to visit a local winery in their local area or ask for a local wine when visiting a restaurant.\u00a0While drinking local wines look for similarities and differences. Wine varies depending on the weather, terroir, vineyard management and winemaking techniques. Enjoy the similarities and differences.<\/p>\n<p>We encourage you to describe the wines and to use the techniques that many sommeliers use. Describe the wines as you find them. To use a generic turn like good or bad does not help anyone. If you like a wine describe why you like the wine; if you don\u2019t like a wine describe why you do not like it or if it has a fault what is the fault.<\/p>\n<p>Cheers,<br \/>\nKathy<\/p>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\" class=\"owbutton\" src=\"http:\/\/www.onlywire.com\/button\" title=\"Arriving at BWI for the Drink Local Wine Conference\" url=\"http:\/\/winetrailtraveler.com\/blog\/?p=7903\"><\/script>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Thursday morning, people were already arriving at the BWI airport for the Drink Local Conference in Baltimore.\u00a0While not everyone can attend the Drink Local Wine Conference this weekend for a variety of reasons be sure to check out the wineries in your region.
