Even if the tariffs were to be reversed tomorrow, one wine business leader said, it'll take "at least a year, if not longer, for my industry to recover.”

Canada’s break from American-made wine and the Trump administration’s global tariffs have compounded the struggles of the United States’ already-stressed wine industry to the point that it may be difficult for much of it “to come back from,” an American wine organization leader told NBC News. 

“Canada is the single most important export market for U.S. wines with retail sales in excess of $1.1 billion annually,” Robert Koch, the California Wine Institute’s president and CEO, said in a statement. 

Last month Canada united to boycott American wines — taking all U.S.-made vino and alcohol off its liquor and wine store shelves and out of restaurants across the country — as an aggressive retaliatory response to Trump’s tariffs on its political ally north of the border.

Sad because California has started to make a few decent wines.

Been to Napa Valley, not impressed at all. Unless you like dry wines that taste like a bleached chesterfield. Okanagan wine is a hundred times better

What about #Arkansas wine from Altus ?

(Sorry, gotta represent my home state, even if our government sucks.)

Could be worse, you could be from Tennessee.

On most metrics Tennessee is better than Arkansas. Are you referencing any particular defect in Teneessee? I've only spent a little time there; a weekend trip over the river to Memphis.

EDIT: Oh, I'm an idiot. Jack Daniel's. Yeah, that economy is going to take a serious hit from CA and EU deciding they don't want that product.

I partly grew up in Tennessee.

If I had a house in Tennessee and an apartment in hell, I'd rent the house and live in hell.

But hey, I'm brown, and the people were monsters.

National Parks too.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I dunno. Is it good? How's that climate good for wine?

[–] bss03@infosec.pub 4 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

I'm not a wine fan, but I didn't think it was particularly good or bad.

They have a microclimate there that is different than either where I grew up, or where I lived for most of my life. And, seeing as there are multiple vineyards, I'm guessing yes? It's cooler than I'm used to due to the shade and general hilly-ness. If you want to "buy American", they are definitely worth a try.

Alright. I wonder if I can find it in my area, which is East coast

[–] thefluffiest@feddit.nl 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Hardly. Overpriced and mediocre

Thanks for your opinion. Very helpful.
