Culinary Historians of San Diego will present “The History of San Diego As Seen Through a Wine Glass,” by Richard Carrico, at 10:30 am November 16, in the Neil Morgan Auditorium of the San Diego Central Library, 330 Park Blvd. Anthropologist, historian, and perhaps most importantly, wine maker, Richard Carrico will take the audience back through more than 240 years of wine making in San Diego County. We will have answers to these questions: who made the first wines; what and where was the first commercial winery; and is it true that at one time San Diego County rivaled Sonoma in wine production? What was the role of our indigenous people in the wine industry? In a well illustrated PowerPoint presentation, Carrico will stress how wine history is a clear reflection of our county’s history as a whole. Today we are experiencing a renaissance of wine making and once again, San Diego County is poised to take its place among the wine growing regions of the United States. Richard L. Carrico, award winner writer, educator, anthropologist and wine maker, is a retired lecturer in the Department of American Indian Studies at San Diego State University and lives in Warner Springs. His research has made significant contributions to our understanding of the local Native American and Hispanic cultures. He is also a principal in his firm Recuerdos Research where he serves as a consultant to local Indian tribes, government agencies and private firms. He has a master’s degree from San Diego State University in both History and Anthropology, and has completed classes on wine making at UC Davis. Richard’s books will be available for sale and signing during a tasting after his presentation. Visit: chsandiego.org/
