Oldest Grape Vine
Two brothers recently opened a winery in Lodi, but prior to living in Lodi and opening the winery, one of the brothers lived in Slovenia for 11 years -- nine of which he spent in Maribor, which has the oldest grape vine in the world (about 450 years old). This year, he has been asked to come back as the guest of honor for Melbors Harvest Festival and gets the rare opportunity to cut grapes from the 450-year-old vine!
