Grape sighting in Church Hill!

I was driving back to Chestertown from the Bay Bridge, and I noticed a new sign bearing the image of some slickly painted waterfowl and advertising one “Cassinelli Winery and Vineyards.” I did a doubletake and saw that the subtly undulating hills were dotted with carefully measured posts: grape trellises! I flashed back to Sonoma Valley, a place I’d visited a couple times back when I was living in California and attending San Francisco State University. I’ve passed by Cassinelli a couple times now, and this new winery in Church Hill looks to be a continuig work in progress, with more posts going up.
