Establishing a Wine Business Your Name Institute Establishing a Wine Business Q1: The costs in the vineyard are in collaboration with the raw materials used such as grapes and juices. Finding the best grapes and juices can present with an opportunity to enhance the clientele. The risk of conservation of water, pest-risk, water quality, soil quality, severe weather is some of the risks for wine growers. Q2: The cost of each vineyard activity includes the maintenance cost, irrigation, soil, harvesting, earthquake, and the procurement of raw material (Roy, 2016). Hiring contract workers would cost around $900 per month and they would require around 8 hours per day at the vineyard. It would cost $10,000 for each vineyard activity to perform to its maximum potential. The winery would take 2 years to become profitable and the profitability can improve by process improvements and better managerial decision making. We can assume that the winery business is a lucrative proposition, and with the proper equipment and entrepreneurial acumen, it can succeed. It is imperative to amalgamate all the resources like an excellent supply of raw materials, machinery/equipment, and expert staff.

Keats loses his vision when he says “I cannot see what flower are at my feet, / Nor what soft incense hangs upon the boughs,” (IV. 41). Afterward, he is granted a heightened sense of smell and invokes this sense with words such as embalmed, sweet, seasonable seasons (an intriguing play on words), hawthorn’s distinct odor, pastoral eglantine, violets’ indirect smell which is significantly “cover’d,” a musk-rose (sounds like some Spanish wine I know), and then tops it off with dewy wine.
