Lancaster, Penn.—As with other aspects of real estate, in vineyards and hurricanes, location is everything. The impact of a hurricane on the wine industry depends on many variables: Wind speed and rainfall total are critical, but timing matters too. A vineyard that is ready to be harvested will suffer greater damage than one four weeks from harvest; a vineyard under disease stress will respond differently than one that is well managed and disease-free.
