[Growwine] Ontario's drinking culture: A big part of the battle?

[melissa lounsbury]

I have to agree.It is a art that you try to improve every time you make a new batch.After you perfect one wine the next time you will incounter an new challenge.If you where not willing to try something different they would all be the same. Its the same with great painters they make their works a little different each time or the same to bring out their qualities.

It might be a useful idea to consider modelling our laws on those used in more "progressive" jurisdictions where wine is understood as a culinary accompaniment (and possibly an artform) and not simply in dry terms, as an "intoxicant".  The overall regulatory climate seems to be predicated on curbing the social ills of alcohol abuse (real as they are) rather than promoting artisanal wines as something that has cultural value.  And it's not just wine - local agriculture in general should be promoted more.  Doing so will of course present challenges, but would likely steer things away from that dry commodified mentality into something more holistic.  Such are my 2¢.

There are AGCO laws which govern the sale and production of alcohol in general.
