Although he grew up in New York’s Finger Lakes and can remember visiting local wineries with his parents, Joe Czerwinski didn’t catch the wine bug until he went away to college. During his first and only semester of graduate school at the University of Wisconsin, he spent more time and money on wine and wine books than archaeology.
