I am sitting on the patio at Mawby Winery, admiring the lush green vines stretching out from this point, covering the slopes rising from the bowl of the valley where Mawby’s tasting room and original facility is located just south of Suttons Bay. Within minutes, I see the slender form of Megan Budd striding towards me, her blond sun-brightened hair waving in the breeze, her packed lunch in an isotherm bag swinging in her hand. Ellie, her 10-year old spaniel (aka the vineyard dog) trots at her heels.
