I am so happy you posted this. We have a great connection with Red Hook Winery of which I spoke about in class last week.
The wine is fantastic, the atmosphere is embracing and the hospitality is a fine example of the truest sense of the word. I encourage you to visit the winery or to enroll in the Wines of the New World course and make wine there!
