Hoosier Wine Update: Butler Winery

Posted byVirtual FarmgirlPosted inUncategorized

I opened a bottle of Indiana Red from Butler Winery near Bloomington this week.

I’d say it’s much better than my experience with the too-sweet Reggae Red.

Indiana Red, on the other hand, is a nice, smooth table wine. Still a bit on the sweet side, but just about right for me.

Butler Winery bills itself as the fourth oldest winery in Indiana…having been established in 1983. Not exactly old-world Italy, which I just learned — from Alpana Singh on Check Please — has more than 900,000 registered wineries. That’s a lot of grapes.
