fall-in-love-poster-final-final-2014
MORE THAN 100 EVENTS TO CHOOSE FROM IN 2014!
 
Millions of people come from around the east coast and even further away to enjoy one of the most spectacular shows Mother Nature puts on every year – autumn in the Hudson Valley. With the majestic river rolling from the docks of Manhattan all the way up past Albany, this region, with its rolling hills, and fantastic vistas, offers some of the most amazing sights on the east coast. Whether you’re visiting by car, bus, train, bicycle or on foot, the Hudson Valley is an awe inspiring visit every fall. Tour the many small museums, the great mansions of the Hudson, the scenic Mid-Hudson Bridge, Westpoint, or Culinary Institute of America, as well as trails and state parks, the Hudson Valley offers many delights.

And of course the Hudson Valley is one of the ultimate destinations for foodies on the east coast. Hosting dozens and dozens of small organic produce farms, free range poultry, grass finished beef and lamb, as well as home to dozens of small artisanal creameries. And the Hudson Valley’s farm-to-table restaurants are second to none.

This September, October, and November when you’re enjoying the grandeur of the Hudson Valley fall, remember to stop in a visit your local winery. Nothing more enjoyable than roaming the back roads of the Hudson Valley, and admiring the setting, and stopping off to sample some artisanal wines of the valley, which have been reviewed in Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast, Snooth, the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and many, many more.

This year, 2014, your Hudson Valley vintners have assembled more than 60 events throughout the valley including special festivals, tastings, music, film, grape stomping, and other happenings to make your trip a fun, memorable, and delicious trip.

From brilliant, effervescent sparkling wines, and refreshing, bright whites, to soft approachable reds, to cider, to cassis and other fruit wines, the Hudson Valley has become one of the most diverse and interesting new wine regions in the U.S.
