Wine-friendly states

[Innkeeper]

Would hate to see you so far away, but Washington may be your state. At a recent wine tasting here, we had some Vin du Pays from an importer there. Now if he can make money by importing low priced wine from France to Washington and shipping it back to Maine, that must be the place. The beer distributor putting on the tasting (see elsewhere for an explanation of that!) said the guy from Washington flew all the way out here on his own initiative to hawk his wares.
