The first leg on my tour to promote by new book, At Home in the Vineyard, was to my home town, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Milwaukee was pretty stodgy when I left in 1962 to go off to college (and never returned, except a few summers), but it's hip. It was a wonderful trip--seeing my brother who lives there, seeing old high school classmates, signing books at Schwartz's great bookstores, and, to top it off, two fabulous dinners at Milwaukee's finest restaurants, Dream Dance and Bacchus. I can't say enough about the professionalism, the fabulous food that complemented my wines so well, and the whole ambiance created by both to create two remarkable evenings. It's the best of all worlds to eat well, meet nice people, and do business.
