Eastern Winery Exposition 2020 - A Who's Who of East Coast Winemaking

David Falcheck of the American Wine Society and 
Richard Leahy of the Eastern Winery Exposition.

Despite the impending Coronavirus doom that was first spreading on the west coast, it seemed like the Eastcoast Winery Exposition 2020 was the last gasp before many went home to face quarentines in their home regions. Despite that, the EWE 2020 was a major success. The classes were widely attended, and there were few if any cancellations by attendees or vendors. To all reports, the conference was a success.

One this for sure, there was a who's who of eastern winery personalities here in Lancaster for this important three day event.
