New equipment, supplies & services.

It's been 25 years--a quarter century--since Wines & Vines first designated November its Equipment, Supplies and Services issue. We're happy to report that the issue gets bigger every year, as more suppliers reach out to our industry readers. Every year, our readers have more and better

With the following listings, we seek to recognize those suppliers who serve the grapegrowing and winemaking industry. More importantly, at this pivotal post-harvest time, we hope to assist growers, winemakers and managers as they make their budgets and their shopping lists for the coming year.

To that end, we try to include as much information as possible. As our advertisers know, space in Wines & Vines is a valuable commodity, and editorial space is limited. Obviously, we cannot include every last supplier to the industry: if we don't know you exist; if you missed our extended deadlines; if your submission was illegible or incomplete, we are sorry, you are not among the listings. If you'd like to be mentioned next year, please contact us.

So, readers, enjoy our November "shopping list" of what is new on the market. We hope you'll find whatever you need to help make 2005 a successful and profitable vintage.
