Maybe the next big thing will be hybrid wines from Ontario? (I miss Paul B. When will he be back from Poland?)

Although I'm not sure what the next big thing will be in the U.S., I am positive of one thing- it will have a cool name that people will like to repeat over and over, such as "Pinot Grigio," "Yellow Tail," "Silver Oak," or "Opus One."

This knocks out two of the front runners: Riesling and Malbec.

I'm going to go with Rioja, Chianti Classico, or the first American wine producer that can come up with a Jazzy name, get high Spectator scores, and be featured in a popular television show/movie.

I didn’t want you to think I blew this fetching post off, I just have no clue. As a younger man I loved to prognosticate about everything. Then I read Bill Gates’ book, ‘The Road Ahead,’ in which he failed to forsee the impact of the Internet about a year before it exploded into everybody’s daily life. That miss had a huge impact on me. I appreciated that a random perturbation can change destiny exponentially. I replaced prognostication with bloviation.
