  So the association decided to add a few more guests to the second, according to Bob Witham, owner of Two Rivers Winery.
  
  "We picked up another 25 in the second (tasting) to make up for the shortfall," Witham said.
  
  The two early-season barrel tastings are popular events and while there is some talk about bumping participant numbers up a bit to keep up with demand, there's also the desire to retain the up-close-and-personal feeling that event still has.
  
  "We don't want to grow too much," Witham said with his voice of experience.
  ...
  Among my impressions are the promising early efforts of Two Rivers' latest winemaker Tyrel Lawson, a Fruita Monument High School grad who initially aimed for medical school but now finds himself mixing blends for Bob and Billie Witham.

  "For us it's really nice to get the recognition," Two Rivers Winery owner Bob Witham said. "It's an affirmation that our products are doing pretty good."

  Owners Bob and Billie Witham say they hope this move encourages local businesses, despite the economic picture.
  
  "We hope that by making this kind of a move, that we will also demonstrate to other folks that you can still grow your businesses, you can still step out there. And there's a great opportunity right now to do such," said Bob Witham.
  
  He says the winery will bring on two more employees with the expansion.

  But if you can't get it, you can't get it," said Bob Witham, co-owner of Two Rivers.
  
  The winery is producing Colorado-grown Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Chardonnay and a port wine.
  
  The weather last fall and this winter has been more cooperative, according to vineyard operators.

  That's well and good, said winery co-owner Bob Witham, but that doesn't alleviate his concern about the sustainability of the boom.
  
  "You really need to be thinking about what happened 25 years ago," he said.

  Bob Whitham, owner of Two Rivers Winery in Palisade, came to wine making from a career in long-term care for the elderly.Whitham and his wife, an accountant, are wine lovers, but they approached their new careers with a business owner's eye.
  
  "Because we're making wine and aging wine, you need access to capital so you can grow the business while you anticipate selling the first bottles," Whitham said.
  ...
  Whitham said he is ready to pull the trigger on a $250,000 expansion of Two Rivers that will include more wine making and storage facilities.Whitham points out that the Colorado wine industry is essentially limited because Palisade and the Grand Junction area are the only parts of the state suitable for grape growing, and act as a supplier to wineries scattered across Colorado.He and others say they are hoping that increased tourism will raise the ceiling on revenues in the industry.

  Bob Witham, co-owner of Two Rivers Winery in Grand Junction, says weather was his No. 1 concern when he opened his winery and vineyard in 1999. He grows grapes near the junction of the Colorado and Gunnison rivers but buys 85 percent of his grapes from other growers. His first priority then was to sign contracts with growers across the valley to help insulate himself from weather problems.
  
  Witham's harvest in 2007 from his vineyards amounted to 8 tons, compared to a banner production year of 20 tons, so he had to count more than ever on his grower contracts. He also carefully manages his inventory to make sure he has enough from year to year.
