LIGHT WINES WITH MEALS
SERVING IN RESTAURANTS ADVOCATED
(P.A.) WELLINGTON, Mar. 22. Giving evidence before the Licensing Commission to-day, Mr B. W. Lindcman, viticultural expert to the Department of Agriculture, said there was insufficient control over the sale of New Zealand wines, and it was possible to foist an immature product upon the public. Witness said he had been reported when previously before the commission as saying it was impossible to make sweet fortified wines in the Dominion without sugar. “I used the word ‘ impossible ’ only in the economic sense,” he said,. He believed the New Zealand public should be encouraged to drink light wines at meals, and advocated their introduction in restaurants.
