CLASSIC CARS and VINO

Michigan and  Detroit are known for our love of cars. We have more car collectors and enthusiast than any other state. After all we are the Motor City!  Many a gearheads may sip on a beer , but would much rather enjoy a glass of wine or in my case a glass of champagne especially if its a hot day. A nice glass of white or rose wine is prefect. Did you know there are a number of Gearheads and Race Drivers that own vineyards?
Lets start with a local friend that loves great wine and classic cars. Tom Celani.
