Listeners to NPR this morning heard this "Morning Edition" report: "Program Trains Enologists in Midwest Grapes," which looks at the University of Missouri – Columbia's fairly new Institute for Continental Climate Viticulture & Enology and its goal of educating future winemakers who can handle the unpredictable weather of the Midwest. And look: There's already a snarky comment!
Related: Chris Hoel's "55 is Alive!" column and my own September feature "What We Talk About When We Talk About Wine," which included a few nods to Missouri wine (and which had a highly visual presentation which at least so far we haven't replicated online).
