We just returned from the Shawangunk Wine Trail Wine tours and tastings in the Hudson Valley, NY.

We visited 9 wineries in 2 days.  It was ฮ for a couple and we went with 2 other couples.  We had a great time and tasted several nice wines.  

I am not crazy about NY wines but some were quite good.  

The Adair Vineyards in New Paltz, NY was a good one.  Their 2000 Estate Bottled Members Reserve was good.  Demarest Hill Winery in Warwick, NY had a very good one, Warwick Black Pearl, made from their own foch grapes.

It was an interesting and fun weekend.  If anyone is interested they have a website.

did you get up to BenMarl on the heights above Marlboro? They make a very reasonable seyval blanc (ű) for every day drinking.

Drop dead gorgeous site, overlooking the Hudson River and on into Connecticut. They cater many weddings, and, from the looks of their rutted road, sell a lot of transmissions.

There's a similar wine trail on the Dutchess / Putnam side, with Millbrook, Clinton Corners, etc on the tour.

Apparently it's easier still to dictate the conversation and in effect, kill the conversation.
