I was recently at the Bounty of the Hudson where I availed
myself of a lot of wonderful wines. Many of which I had the first opportunity to
try this season. One of the first I tried was Baldwin Vineyards.
Baldwin Vineyards proprietors, Patricia and Jack Baldwin,
planted the first Vineyard in 1982 and a second vineyard in 1983. By 1985, both were working full time to
create a micro winery which offers a wide array of different styles of wine
from dry reds and whites to fruit dessert wines.
While at their booth, I tried their chardonnay. I generally
like their sweeter, dessert styled wines, which recently won a gold. However,
the chardonnay was charming! It was big and fruity up front, but the finish was
dry. Big green and Mac Intosh apples and bright pear, but with an elegant
creamy finish. A lovely sipping wine. Lovely!
