Wisconsin wine: Picking grapes at a Prescott vineyard

When you think of Wisconsin, your first thought is probably either the Green Bay Packers or cheese. But what about wine?

PRESCOTT, Wis. — Nestled among neighboring corn fields in Prescott, Wisconsin, is the Foy family`s two-acre chunk of wine country.

The vineyard is made up of one acre of red grapes, the other white, both bred by the University of Minnesota to withstand the Midwest`s cold temperatures.

"It`s been 35-below here and they`ve survived," said Erroll Foy, who moved to the acreage with his family from Minneapolis several years ago.
