Holy-Field wines win medals at Florida State Fair
February 16, 2011
Holy-Field Vineyard and Winery in Basehor won nine medals at the Florida State Fair International Wine Competition this past weekend.
Holy-Field won gold medals for its Melody and Chardonel wines; silver medals for its Tailgate Red, Late Harvest Vignoles, Cynthiana and Vignoles wines; and bronze medals for its Tailgate White, Corky's Barrel and Chambourcin wines.
At the Jefferson Cup Invitational Wine Competition in Kansas City, Mo., in late 2010, Holy-Field was one of two wineries in the country to win two of the 20 Jefferson Cups awarded. The Chambourcin won a cup for red non-vinifera wines, and the Late Harvest Vignoles won a cup for dessert wines.

Point of View
What’s been your favorite vacation destination?
“As an adult my favorite vacation would have to be the Rockies. Colorado has always had a close place in my heart. But as a child I always went to the northern states and I’d have to say that they had the best family oriented activities, such as the Great Lakes and many a fun time on the Mississippi. If it involved water, we were there.”
