Winery Happenings

Wine Update

Normally we do not have our two sparkling wines open for tasting because the carbonation dissipates too quickly upon so many openings and we waste a lot of wine.  Since so many people drink sparkling wine around the holidays, we will start opening these bottles in the tasting room on Friday, November 15th and continue until the end of the year.  We have our dry Champagne-like Blanc de Blancs and our sweet Moscato available.  Love bubbles!

Our new vintage of Winter Warmth has been released!  This is our sweet red made with cinnamon, orange peel and allspice.  All the work that goes into making a mulled wine has already been done just to make life a little easier.  This wine can be served either warm or cold and is an excellent winter treat!

Painting with Wine Classes

Painting with Wine Classes

Monday night, 11/18 at 7pm, you have your choice of painting either the pumpkin plate or the Giving Thanks plate.  Put a homemade treat on your homemade plate to bring to Thanksgiving dinner!  Cost is $25 and includes everything you need including instruction, a glass of wine and snacks.  Let us know ahead of time which plate you would like to paint.  Call the winery to sign up.

THE BREWERY / CURRENT TAP LIST

Current tap list is:

"Ruby Duby Dubbel” – a Belgian Dubbel brewed with Foch grapes (go into our Ruby wine)

“The imPORTance of Quad" – a Belgian Quad aged in Port barrels

“Steuben is as Steuben Does” – a Belgian tripel brewed with Steuben grape must

"Is that a Belg in your Beer or are you just Hoppy to see me?” – an IPA fermented with Belgian yeast

“Honey, You’re Still Nuts! (No Pump-kin-tended)” – a spiced ale made with Honey Nut squash instead of pumpkins

A breakfast stout and a hazy IPA are on deck.  Beer needs to be consumed on premises per PA winery law, so no growler fills.  Sorry!  But that’s why we now have so much deck seating and tables in the tasting room!

We Can Ship Out of State

Good news for our customers who live out of state – we can now ship to you via Vinoshipper!  Just follow the directions to set up a Vinoshipper account on our website.  If you live in PA, you currently need to go through Vinoshipper to order online, but soon we will have a separate cart set up for you to order directly from us.  In the meantime, you can always call in a shipping order.  Thanks for your patience while we get this all straightened out!

Baskets Galore!

Our resident basket maker has been busy getting ready for the season.  Nicest gift for your Thanksgiving dinner host/hostess ever!
