Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Muscadine Grapes During the last decade a general industrial and agricultural awak ening has been in progress in the South Atlantic and Gulf States. Rapid advancement has been made along many lines. Commercial and manufacturing industries are making their appearance on all sides and great strides have also been made in agricultural develop ment. The existing labor and other conditions render urgent the development of more varied agricultural pursuits and also demand that other lines besides those commonly followed be taken up. The destruction of the forests as a result of the turpentine and lumber industries calls for the utilization of the denuded lands, and there is thus abundant Opportunity for agricultural undertakings. The horticultural development of this, as of all other sections, depends to a very great extent upon the native fruits of the region. The South-is rich in native fruits, but even among the most impor tant of these none are more promising, none will adjust themselves so well to the diverse conditions, none will yield fruit for which there are so many uses or for which such large returns for time and means expended are received as the Muscadine grapes. The purpose of this bulletin is to give some glimpses of the past and present condition of the Muscadine grape industry, to call attention to some of its possibilities, and to indicate the important problems in the industry that require Solution. It is intended as a report of the viticultural investigations of the Bureau of Plant Indus; try in Muscadine regions from 1905 to 1911, including both a discus sion of the results already accomplished and a description of the important researches that are under way.

Download or read book The Wild Vine written by Todd Kliman and published by Crown. This book was released on 2011-05-03 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A rich romp through untold American history featuring fabulous characters, The Wild Vine is the tale of a little-known American grape that rocked the fine-wine world of the nineteenth century and is poised to do so again today. Author Todd Kliman sets out on an epic quest to unravel the mystery behind Norton, a grape used to make a Missouri wine that claimed a prestigious gold medal at an international exhibition in Vienna in 1873. At a time when the vineyards of France were being ravaged by phylloxera, this grape seemed to promise a bright future for a truly American brand of wine-making, earthy and wild. And then Norton all but vanished. What happened? The narrative begins more than a hundred years before California wines were thought to have put America on the map as a wine-making nation and weaves together the lives of a fascinating cast of renegades. We encounter the suicidal Dr. Daniel Norton, tinkering in his experimental garden in 1820s Richmond, Virginia. Half on purpose and half by chance, he creates a hybrid grape that can withstand the harsh New World climate and produce good, drinkable wine, thus succeeding where so many others had failed so fantastically before, from the Jamestown colonists to Thomas Jefferson himself. Thanks to an influential Long Island, New York, seed catalog, the grape moves west, where it is picked up in Missouri by German immigrants who craft the historic 1873 bottling. Prohibition sees these vineyards burned to the ground by government order, but bootleggers keep the grape alive in hidden backwoods plots. Generations later, retired Air Force pilot Dennis Horton, who grew up playing in the abandoned wine caves of the very winery that produced the 1873 Norton, brings cuttings of the grape back home to Virginia. Here, dot-com-millionaire-turned-vintner Jenni McCloud, on an improbable journey of her own, becomes Norton’s ultimate champion, deciding, against all odds, to stake her entire reputation on the outsider grape. Brilliant and provocative, The Wild Vine shares with readers a great American secret, resuscitating the Norton grape and its elusive, inky drink and forever changing the way we look at wine, America, and long-cherished notions of identity and reinvention.
Download or read book Beverages Past and Present Vol 2 of 2 written by Edward R. Emerson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-10-06 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Beverages, Past and Present, Vol. 2 of 2: An Historical Sketch of Their Production, Together With a Study of the Customs Connected With Their Use Any old bottle - medicine and ink ones predominated would have answered the purpose, and second-hand corks were almost a luxury, for pieces of com-stalk and wads of paper were mainly used for this purpose. The vintage is a most indifferent affair in this country: no care is taken to separate the various kinds of grapes, and as for sorting the ripe from the unripe and the good from the bad, such a thing was never thought of, for they say the fermentation will rectify all these conditions and what is the use of doing a lot of unnecessary work? In other countries this contention has been proven to be wrong, but in Tran sylvania the results seem to prove the assertion and bear the practice out. In fact, everything about the vintage is imperfectly manipulated, and yet the result is almost perfection; perhaps it is the element of climate that has much to do towards this condition of affairs. There may be, and undoubtedly is, some thing in the atmosphere that has a corrective tendency and makes the fermentation period a most powerful agency. The soil on these mountain-sides too is almost ideal for the grape, being composed of sand and marl, and consequently any variety quickly becomes ao climated or established. There are fourteen species of grape indigenous to the country; that is to say, which have been for centuries acclimatised here. Amongst them are five sorts of muscadine grape; but these, though most highly valued for the table, produce inferior wine. The most prized by the wine-growers is one with a small berry, called Maiden Grape (avi cella m'iida) which produces an incomparable wine.

Download or read book Wines of Eastern North America written by Hudson Cattell and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2013-12-24 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1975 there were 125 wineries in eastern North America. By 2013 there were more than 2,400. How and why the eastern United States and Canada became a major wine region of the world is the subject of this history. Unlike winemakers in California with its Mediterranean climate, the pioneers who founded the industry after Prohibition—1933 in the United States and 1927 in Ontario—had to overcome natural obstacles such as subzero cold in winter and high humidity in the summer that favored diseases devastating to grapevines. Enologists and viticulturists at Eastern research stations began to find grapevine varieties that could survive in the East and make world-class wines. These pioneers were followed by an increasing number of dedicated growers and winemakers who fought in each of their states to get laws dating back to Prohibition changed so that an industry could begin. Hudson Cattell, a leading authority on the wines of the East, in this book presents a comprehensive history of the growth of the industry from Prohibition to today. He draws on extensive archival research and his more than thirty-five years as a wine journalist specializing in the grape and wine industry of the wines of eastern North America. The second section of the book adds detail to the history in the form of multiple appendixes that can be referred to time and again. Included here is information on the origin of grapes used for wine in the East, the crosses used in developing the French hybrids and other varieties, how the grapes were named, and the types of wines made in the East and when. Cattell also provides a state-by-state history of the earliest wineries that led the way.
