I did some tree work for Buddy after I had discovered his excellent wine at the Bath Store. He is one fascinating character full of common sense and mirth.
Ted came this way and I took him over for a sample of NC wine plus the unique things Buddy and I always end up discussing. We have plans to go back again and I took Ted some NC spirits on our visit about a year ago. If anything could make a fellow move to NC, it would be the Bennett Winery! On my last visit Buddy was telling me of the interest California vintners had in his vines and how they did not listen carefully to instructions about their unique nature. As a result some 200 cuttings he sold them got killed by California growers pouring the fertilizer to them. Buddy had a most interesting article the first time we met about NC having reputed "best American wines," but the Civil war destroyed it. He has found an old recipe and makes the best wine I have ever tasted from scuponons. I never go there with less than a hour of time---which usually stretches double with a zest for more. I can say the same of you, Stan, but if you made such good wine, I might agree with you on more issues, my brother!!! ![]() |
Buddy doesn't do it all by himself, plus he needs a new website, which we will build him when he gets enough money socked away.
Over the years, he was one of my biggest supporters. He once ran for county commissioner the same time I did with his campaign pitch being he wanted to win so could help Stan to continue to do the RIGHT thing. The man did not win, but I appreciated his strong commitment to smaller government, more effective government. I guess you could say, we have a bold mutual respect. How did you find out about Buddy Harrell? |
