Our trip to Red hook was a great experience. Being from New York I had thought I experienced everything you could but I was wrong. The view alone was breath taking. It was a great experience full of information. Being that we had to write a paper before going on the trip a lot of what was said I had already studied and understood, which was definitively a plus . I must say one of the subjects that stood out was hearing the tips and techniques of an actual wine maker, he mentioned adding a drop of milk to help with the astringent taste of wine, this was never mentioned in text so it was great to hear how wine makers perfected their wines. I personally believe if the paper was due after our October 6th trip to Red Hook Winery It would have been a better experience. Having actual information from a wine maker would have been essential to our research paper. It would have provided factual and first person data. Besides that Our trip to Red Hook winery was amazing. I cannot wait for our next trip!

One of the purposes of the research being conducted before was to ensure all students were prepared to interact with a professional wine maker. The gap between his knowledge and ours is immense and I wanted to ensure we were prepared. When learning something new the input of various methods of learning helps to create a stronger foundation for retaining the information we process. I appreciate that by taking the necessary steps you felt comfortable learning from Mr. Foley.
