More than 35 wineries from throughout New York State will be joined by farmers and food producers, as well as several local restaurants, to present a taste of New York and celebrate the season. From 2 to 6 pm, consumers may sample over 100 wines from Long Island, the Hudson Valley, the Finger Lakes, and other regions, and have the opportunity to purchase those they particularly enjoy.
Joining the wineries are Beth’s Farm Kitchen, Great Performances, McCadam Cheese, Mercer’s Wine Ice Cream, Red Jacket Orchards, Remburgers Maple; and the New York City Watershed Agricultural Council.
Several local-focused restaurants will provide samples of their cuisine, including Cool Fish (from Long Island), whose chef-owner Tom Schaudel will have a separate table for signing his popular book, “Playing with Fire—Whining and Dining on the Gold Coast”. Other restaurants include Jimmy’s No. 43, Gustorganics, North Square, and Palo Santo.
