  Collier Wine Group has a location on Collier Drive in Sevierville that specializes in Germanic wines.  Sugarland Cellars will specialize in Alpine wines made from berries from higher elevations.

 "We are going to be selling a logan berry wine near Thanksgiving," said Amanda Henry, manager of Sugarland Cellars. "I think we have bought every logan berry in the country."

  Henry and other personel with Collier worked almost round the clock making final preparations for the grand opening. Their efforts paid off well and business is reported to be brisk as customers have been streaming in steadily to taste the new line of fine wines.
