US: South Dakota’s wine industry continues to grow
May 24, 2011 6
Wineries are popping up all over South Dakota, favorably impacting both the agricultural and visitor industries.
South Dakota wineries have produced in excess of 1 million bottles of wine since 1997. When the first farm winery was licensed in 1997, the industry produced a mere 230 gallons of wine. That grew to more than 78,000 gallons last year; production is expected to double in the next three years. There are now 19 active farm wineries in the state.
