[edit] Copy Vio

Looking at the history of the text from the original American wine article it looks like the bulk of the history text was written by USER:David Justin between Feb & Mar 06. At least according to archive.org the web page in question didn't exist till 2007. So it looks like the copy vio is that website taking content from Wikipedia.

[edit] Vinland

The first sentence needs to be cited or removed. It is highly debatable whether Vinland actually referred to American grapes at all, let alone served as the beginning of American wine making. (See Vinland) 24.20.60.216 (talk) 08:36, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
