The wine industry across the country has recently become a popular destination for individuals looking to launch a new career. Tired of the corporate setting, entrepreneurs with backgrounds in business, technology, chemistry, banking, architecture, and engineering are now adapting their skills to starting wineries and vineyards.
The recent New York Times article titled, "Wines, With Notes of M.B.A." illustrates how new vineyards are being established by wine consumers who have little or no experience in producing wines. Over the past three years, 58 wineries have opened in New York, but a growing number of small wineries have also appeared in Washington, Oregon, Texas, North Carolina and New Jersey.
