The following is from today's Buffalo News: "Timing was everything for grape growers in Western New York as this year’s weather-beaten harvest wound down last week....." Link to the rest of the article: Buffalo News.

I'd say just going by experience that there will be exceptions; there always are. One of the most unlikely Ontario wines I've come to enjoy is Pelee Island's 2006 Gamay/Zweigelt blend. A bad year, yet a fantastic wine - and red, at that!
