Context

Dear Mr. Reinprecht : Enclosed is n article from the Kansas City Times, Thursday, September 25, 1969, which is self-explanatory. As you can tell by the article, I am continuing to try to grow a grape in Northwest Missouri suitable for the production of a good dry wine. The Vinifera varieties all winter kill in this area, and I am attempting to find a Vinifera that will survive. Thank you again for the ten bottles of Ruster Burgunder. So far I have only sampled one and it was very good but seemed much too young yet to drink. What year do your feel it will reach its maturity. Sincerely, Enc.
