Say, Gov. Hickenlooper, can you talk to Rick Perry about local wine?

Imagine my surprise when Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper stopped by the DrinkLocalWine 2012: Colorado media dinner last night. On his way to officate at a wedding, no less.

I was surprised, of course, because Texas' elected officials have been less than supportive of Texas wine. Like not at all. And yes, I asked Gov. Hickenlooper the question in the headline. He smiled, but I don't think he realized I wasn't joking.

That is really too bad that the support is not there...it's revenue into the state, right? I am glad we have the support...
