Say Aloha to Hawaiian wine...

The 50th State does not have a long tradition of growing its own grapes, or fermenting its own wines, despite early 19th century legends of sailing crews in search of "wine, women, and song."

The three main wineries scattered throughout the islands today date back only to the 70's and 80's, when the mainland craze for establishing a new generation of vineyards reached its height.
