"Give me juicy autumnal fruit, ripe and red," said American poet Walt Whitman. O, but ye shall have it your way, Walt, ye shall have it. Though he was talking specifically about orchards, Whitman's sentiment could as easily apply to grapevines. The days are getting shorter and the leaves are slowly darkening their hues. That just means its time to start drinking red, white and sparkling wines that are as weighty as they are well-priced. Fall in, people.
