TWO Limestone Coast residents have been shortlisted as 50 finalists in the 2021 Young Gun of Wine Awards. Coonawarra’s Penley Estate winemaker Lauren Hensen and Wangolina owner and vigneron Anita Goode were selected after two days of intensive judging by a panel of leading industry figures from across the country.
The Goode family have farmed the land of Wangolina Station since 1923 after arriving in Mount Benson in the late 19th century.
Vines were planted on the sprawling property in 1999, with cabernet sauvignon, shiraz and sauvignon blanc going into the ground and the first wines were made in 2001.
The centuries-old game of snow snake
What once was a form of communication between native villages, now continues as a form of recreation and comradery. Author: Peter Gallivan Updated: 6:59 AM EST March 9, 2021
BUFFALO, N.Y. Here in Western New York, we love our winter sports and activities, from sledding to skiing, snowmobiling to snowshoeing. But there is one still played that predates them all: snow snake. According to the elders in Seneca (Nation) the game almost 600 years old, says Pete Bissell.
Bissell, a native of the Tuscarora Nation, started playing as a teenager and is now almost 80. He points out that it is a game that predates Columbus. It is also a game that evolved out of a form of communication between villages.
