Give the Gift of MD Wine!
'Tis
the season for good cheer, and we encourage your support of
the industry by giving a gift of Maryland wine this holiday
season. Wineries offer gift certificates and gift cards, as
well as many other wine-related and MD-produced gifts.
The
Maryland Wineries Association offers private tastings -- which
can be given as a gift to others, or to yourself (we know,
the holidays can be rough!). Read
