Hudson-Chatham Hosts

Bread, Wine & Cheese Event

Saturday, November 20, 2010

The Hudson-Chatham Winery hosts its annual gourmet extravaganza. We bring together local cheesemakers, bakers, and purveyors of other Hudson Valley deliciousness to dazzle everyone’s tastebuds – and help them bring the goodness home for the holidays.

This year, besides the typical large selection of creameries represented, and the delicious breads from River Street Bakers, we will also be featuring – and sampling – lots of other locally produced goodies. These include:
* 100% natural juices and confections from Micosta
* maple syrups
* mouthwatering Larry’s Southwestern sauces
* organic nuts
* handmade herbed butters
* Hudson Valley Foie Gras and duck salami
* Seyval Blanc mustard
* full-flavored Beth’s Farm Kitchen chutneys, and an
* amazing black currant caviar -

All great to have on hand for the holidays.

We will have cheeses from the following area creameries:
* Twin Maple,
* Amazing Real Live Food Company
* Old Chatham Sheepherding Company
* Coach Farm
* Sprout Creek
* Nettle Meadow
* Harpersfield
* Beekman Farm
* Hudson-Chatham cheddars, spreads, and dip.

Discover how to find the perfect wine and cheese pairings, try some amazing toppings on some exceptional cheeses, and of course, enjoy the award-winning wines of the Hudson-Chatham Winery. This is one of our favorite events because – like Thanksgiving just a few days later – it’s all about good food, good wine, family, and friends.

Chris Matthews gives a rave review of Hudson-Chatham’s 2008 and 2009 Baco Noirs in the most recent issue of Rural Intelligence.

“As often happens with a small production, gold medal-winner, however, the 2008 is now sold out. Fortunately, the De Vitos have kept some bottles back as “library” wines.

“Most of us remember the miserable, wet summer of 2009. In that context, the newly released 2009 Baco Noir is a pleasant surprise. While definitely lighter in color and body than the 2008, reflecting the difficult vintage, it has pretty, floral and plummy aromas reminiscent of Pinot Noir, and bright red fruit with a dash of pepper on the palate. The 2009’s lovely fruit and zesty acidity will make it a versatile—and delightful—local addition to a Thanksgiving table.

Conclusion: two very different, but pleasing wines, showing that Baco Noir can make exceptional wines in disparate (even bad) years in the HV.”
