#OnThisDay in 1878, an ad ran in the #ReadingTimes with the above image and the following caption: "If you desire something really excellent for your Christmas dinner, stop in at J. L. Kuechler's, 523 Penn St., and buy a gallon of his two-year old Clinton Wine, vintage of 1876 -- only $1.50 a gallon." // More in my book: Lost Mount Penn: Wineries, Railroads and Resorts of Reading (Link in Bio) // 12/16/1878, Newspapers.com

Do y'all know about Nicholas Longworth... AKA The Father of American Wine? The first to: 1) run a successful commercial winery, 2) produce sparkling wine in America, and 3) produce commercial wine on a large scale? He did all this in...

wait for it...

...Cincinnati, Ohio! His "Sparkling Catawba” was so popular that, in 1860, Ohio was the nations #1 wine-producing state, outpacing California 2 to 1. It also caused a London journalist to state that it "transcends the Champagnes of France." Anyway, above is a cool drawing of his vineyards along the Ohio river, from 1859. (via Wikimedia Commons)

The zig-zag pattern is a good illustration of how many little microclimates and vineyards exist in @altoadigewines... a region with 5000 growers who own on average about 1ha of vineyard land. #vineyard #vines #vineyardporn #vitigno #altoadige #southtyrol #altoadigewines #sudtirol #italianwine #vino #vinoitaliano #italy #vinitalyinternational #wine #winelover #winelovers #wineporn #vino #winetasting #winepairing #instawine #winesofinstagram #winetime #winestagram #travel #wanderlust #travelporn #winetravel #winetour #winetourism

Top Pinot Noir vineyards of Alto Adige, from across the valley. Mazzon, straight ahead, and Glen, in shadow.
