Bob Johnson's Wine Lines Toasts Oklahoma Wineries

Oklahoma - home to a blossoming wine industry

Veteran wine writer Bob Johnson has some encouraging words about the state of Oklahoma's wine industry. Here's a little taste of what he had to say:

He goes on to discuss Okie vintners: Stone Bluff Cellars Inn & Winery, Tidal School Vineyards, Moonfeathers Winery, Cimarron Cellars, Nuyaka Creek Winery, and Cabin Creek Vineyard.
