FALL IN LOVE WITH HUDSON VALLEY WINE EVENTS FOR NOV 1 & 2, 2014!

 
CIDER, CIDER, CIDER, AND RESTAURANT WEEK!!!!

This is a special week in the Fall In Love With Hudson Valley Wine campaign. Firstly, this is the kick off of The Hard Cider Experience at Applewood Farm the home of Naked Flock Ciders!

In some corners of the region, the apple is thought of as the grape of the Hudson Valley. When Applewood Winery first opened in 1994 their first mission was to have some fun and make a superior Hard Apple Cider.  The winery has a 40 acre apple orchard and is one of the oldest continuously farms in the Valley. Jonathan Hull and his wife had tasted many commercial hard ciders where the main ingredient was water.  Add some concentrate from China or wherever, some high proof fire water and VOILA! They called it Hard Cider and churned it out like widgets off an assembly line. John and Marcia wanted to share a real Cider with the world.  The Hudson Valley Hard Cider Experience is a fun way to do it.
 
At the Hard Cider Experience people can enjoy authentic Hard Ciders and Apple wines paired with samples f fine Farm-to-Table cuisine and live entertainment.

And of course there's Restaurant Week sponsored by The Valley Table magazine. Enjoy locally grown and locally prepared, farm fresh, farm-to-table dishes in restaurants up-and-down the Hudson Valley, and with them ask for a glass of Hudson Valley wine, sparkling wine, cider, or spirits.

Nov 1 & 2 – The Hard Cider Experience 12-5 pm. Food and cider pairing. Special blends. Includes live music. APPLEWOOD WINERY
