I WAS BORN WITH A SUITCASE IN MY HAND: ADVENTURES AROUND THE WORLD Becky Rochester would gladly live out of a suitcase if it meant she could see the world, and that is what she did and continues to do today. She has lived in WI, IL, PA, CA, OR, New Zealand and Australia. Working in different wineries and vineyards and now a brewery, she lives life to the fullest. Sometimes following her heart instead of her head put her in some difficult situations, but she wouldn't change a thing.

Being a wine judge
In August, I had the opportunity to be a wine judge at the 2012 International Cold Climate Wine Competition in St. Paul, Minnesota. Twenty-one judges from across the U.S. and Canada judged over 325 wines entered into the competition. It was a great experience for me, and I was thrilled to see Wisconsin wineries represented at the competition. Danzinger Vineyards was awarded Best of Show Specialty/Fortified for its Midnight Voyage Dessert Red Wine. Wines produced from cold-climate varieties have really begun to hold their own. There are some fantastic white wines being produced from LaCrescent, St. Pepin, Marquette and Frontenac.
