Party at Tousey a HUGE SUCCESS! Photo Album 2014!

 
Great party at Tousey Winery last night. A big event. A lot of county folks and friends showed up as well as a number of farm beverage folks from throughout the Hudson Valley arrived to show support!!! And welcome home our friend Ben Peacock!!!
 
Representatives from Pazdar Winery, Brookview Station, Whitecliff Vineyards, Cereghino-Smith, Hudson Valley Distillers, Harvest Spirits, Hudson-Chatham Winery, and many others joined in the fun, tasting many Tousey wines, sampling the various foods, and in general, having a great time!!!
 
A big hand goes out to Laura Staerker, and Dave Colby and the Columbia County Chamber of Commerce! Fantastic organization. And the weather held out!  Also, a special thanks to Cantele Tents for participating as well! Also, special thanks to Harriet of Tousey Winery for having patience and allowing the horde to take over take the winery.
 



And the band played on....Dylan, Jack, and Gianni played smooth jazz all night long, and are available for gigs.
