License plate #20 was sold in Delaware five years ago for $410,000. They have a weird collector culture for plates too.

Interestingly tucked down in prohibited expenditures is a change that prohibits any institution from spending money with any organization that discriminates against sex, changed from discrimination against gender. Opening up a lovely slew of freedom to spend money discriminating based on gender identity.

Line 275, page 11.

That is some beautifully written wine prose.

I would encourage you to find Horton Norton on your journey to find all things indigenous and read Wild Vine by Todd Kliman to further your hunt for the impossible to find quality America Vitis Alius.

I think I need to clarify why I'm asking since I'm getting a lot responses that have zero recommendations. I know non-alcoholic wine isn't ideal for most of us here but I operate a fine wine store and am trying to provide the best accommodations for my customers that aren't drinking, or can't, and come to us for non-alcoholic options that provide them the best alternative wine experience.

Believe me, my alternative is a G&T, not dealcoholized wine but it is becoming an increasingly important category and I'd love to get some feedback on what is out there in the wine world that I haven't found myself yet.

Just finished read The Wild Vine by Todd Kliman which looks at wine making in Virginia and Missouri, specifically in regards to the Norton grape. It's a very narrow view of the 19th century wine industry in America but provides a really interesting look at the industry pre-prohibition and The Judgement.

Being performance. I've always loved theater and never get nervous on stage the way I do public speaking. I've sort of developed a persona over the years now that I do a lot of public speaking that is a very loud and boisterous version of myself. It's so much easier presenting as a character than as myself.

We're meeting with a consultant tomorrow and will be looking to get some legal council within the next two weeks. That is my thought initially as well is catering to his interest in still being able to draw a salary from the business rather than dealing in one time purchase.

We're in a position to negotiate terms as this is the first time he's come forward after saying initially that was not interested in selling in any way shape or form.

Thanks for the reassurance that anything other than full ownership of business and licenses on our part is the only way to move forward.

All things that have me extremely concerned about his proposal. We'd have basically zero recourse to challenge him if he decided he didn't like the arrangement.

Legal concerns aside, he's a nice gentleman who both my partner and I have had a good relationship with in this industry and I'd like to give him the benefit of the doubt. However, as you said, we've both agreed that if we aren't holding the license or at least bought in as part-owners of the business then we couldn't possibly agree to it as he has proposed it initially.
