Part of a grand plan to oust the small family wineries and keep the multi-nationals afloat in the glut?? Not good at all…. All we can hope is that people support the small wineries otherwise we will all simply disappear. It’s already verging on a non-profitable business (unless you charge $50+ a bottle for each wine) so it will certainly make it harder for those of us who are driven by passion rather than profit…:(
