Winemakers Cultivate the 718 Terroir
An urban winemaking movement is growing in New York City. Today, there are eight official wine producers in the city, though most make their wine in facilities upstate.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terroir
"Terroir (French pronunciation: [tɛʁwaʁ] from terre, "land") is the set of all environmental factors that affect a crop's epigenetic qualities, when the crop is grown in a specific habitat. Collectively, these environmental characteristics are said to have a character; terroir refers also to this character.[1]"
What matters is where and how the crop is grown.
Grapes are not grown as a crop in Brooklyn and Queens.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitis_labrusca
" In fact, in areas of the United States where vinifera does flourish in the west, the conditions during the growing season are often too arid for labrusca vines.[5]"
