Winemakers visit frequently, and dinners at local restaurants are common.
Recently, Robert Mondavi Winery's Steve Leveque visited the Lowcountry. High Cotton Maverick Bar and Grill hosted a dinner featuring some of his wines. Steve is from Napa and knew early on that he wanted to be part of the wine industry. He makes Mondavi's Pinot Noirs, Zinfandels and Chardonnays, as well as a dessert wine, Moscato D'Oro. Having studied genetic engineering at San Diego State no doubt helps him understand grapevine clones.
