the server is doing something weird.. I sent this message a month ago & 
now its coming thru.  where can I find  out more about ice wine, Ive 
heard passing references to this for years.  Lon?

by the way, I just got Lon's new book in the mail & I would say that if 
your doing organic grapes this is a must have.  the kind of book that 
makes you wish for a really cold winter day where you can't do anything 
else but read.  Im gonna recommend this to all the organic grape 
growers in my area.
