En Vino Veritas

So..I feel like an apology is necessary. It's been a while since blogging has been on the agenda. Oh Ventosa! You're getting into busy season! Not a bad thing at all. It's great to see more customers coming through the door and looking for their vino. Lots of people must be enjoying the warm weather that upstate New York is experiencing. It's definitely feeling a lot more like summer. The vines are really liking that. Maybe this year will be a good vintage year. Guess the proof is in the bottle, right? En vino veritas.

So May is Riesling month. Kind of a coincidence that Riesling is king in this region. So the winery is running a couple of promos for the month of May with Riesling. We're doing buy 2 bottles of Riesling and get the 3rd free, as well as complimentary tastings of Riesling. To continue the Riesling mindset we have a couple of new Rieslings that will be released as well. Word from Jenna, our winemaker, is that we will be producing and releasing two new Rieslings soon. One being a Riesling similar to the one that we have available now and the o being a sweet style Riesling. Sweeter is how the Germans make their Riesling so why not follow the originators lead? JAHHH! That was my version of a German accent. I know. I'm a dork.

The other cool thing going on here at the winery is that we're having a Mother's Day brunch from 10:00-2:30 Sunday, May 9th. There's everything from 3 carving stations, to a pasta station, to an omlet station, and a whole lot of great desserts. Bargain price too. We researched competitors prices and ours is the lowest in the area. $20.95 for adults and $11.95 for kids ages 5-12. Come on in and load up a plate or two. You know you want to! I had no clue what to get my Mom until recently so this is perfect for those last minute ideas, but gotta make sure you call for a reservation. Apparently this has been a big hit in the past couple years.

Cheers to Mom and summer quickly approaching! Even more so: Cheers to living life Finger Lakes style!
