HUDSON-CHATHAM WINERY DELIGHTS

AT UNCORK NEW YORK

SIP, SAVOR AND SHOP AT CITY WINERY

On December 6, 2009, Sunday afternoon, City Winery hosted Uncork New York, Sip, Savor, and Shop. 39 wineries from around New York were there. And Hudson-Chatham WInery was proud to be one of them.

Here's Laura Stearker, our tastingroom manager, there working the event.

Here's David Jackson, our Director of Sales, also working the event.

You'd never guess it, but these are two super sales people, and along with our General Manager, Ralph, are at the heart of our team.

Beth of Beth's Farm Kitchen was also at the event. She's is an incredible woman, and dynamo. Really special and accomplished person. And a great ambasadoor for Columbia County.

Our Paperbirch dessert wines claimed the day, as we sold lots of Cabernet Sauvignon port and lot's of our Bannerman's Castle Amber Cream (sherry). But the real star turned out to be North Cree Toome. We sold a ton of cheese, but we could have sold twice that. Here's hoping we do it again next year.

A great day and congrats to Jim Trezise, President of the NYWGA, and Rory Callahan, who is the head of working the wineries through the NYC Greenmarkets. They organized the event and made it happen. Great job, gentlemen.
