As a coincidence to my post last Tuesday on a California winery doing good for salamanders, while reading Educating Peter, a book on wine basics, I came across a note regarding exceptional wine from a NY winery named Red Newt Cellars. Red Newt Cellars isn't as large or mention being as engaged environmentally as Kendall-Jackson but it's nice to see the newt on the bottle and they do provide some education on the Red-spotted Newt and even named their 2005 Red Blend "Viridescens" after the Newt's scientific name.
