Windham Hill Wine Series Announced

Windham Hill Wine Series-2006

Spring is just around the corner at the end of our country road-a time for renewal after a winter of contemplation on the quiet snowy days-plenty of time to cook up the best Windham Hill Wine Series yet!!

Following the continued success of the wine dinner series in 2005, an expansion is in the works for 2006, with an added twist. One of the consistent questions I get at each wine dinner is “where can we get these marvelous wines??” More often than not, the answer has been that the wines are not readily available on a retail basis, which I know is not the answer you want. So…enter the Collectors Edition Dinners, two dinners over the course of the Windham Hill Wine Series designed to showcase wines that are available through Amory Consultants. These dinners will be held in the early summer and late fall and are designed to let you stock your cellar for summer and winter!!! Daphne Amory has a growing clientele in the area and is able to source most any wines that I get here at the Inn.

As always, Jenn Cayer and her wonderful kitchen staff create each wine dinner menu to complement and showcase the wines on offer and the wonderful organic ingredients we purchase and grow here for your pleasure and healthy enjoyment! The menus are created in the few weeks before each dinner in order to pair wines and locally available produce, meats, game and seasonal seafood-the result is always a feast for the senses in a convivial and relaxed setting.

This year Jenn will have a broad canvas at her disposal given the range of wines and the areas of the world where they are grown. Spring freshness and light will eventually meet the brooding warmth of winter’s slow food, in each case complemented by and enhanced by the expression of the grape and the terroir of its origin…..but I digress!

Menus will be posted at www.windhamhill.com a few weeks before the dinners. Join our mailing list and get email notice. These emails sometimes contain lodging discounts in conjunction with off peak season dinners, so sign up to receive these offers at
windham@sover.net.

Our first dinner of the year will be held on Thursday March 30th at 6:30pm and will feature the astounding wines from Domaine Weinbach in Alsace. This is the second time we have focused on these fantastic white wines with Sheilah McGovern Reynolds of Vineyard Brands. Jenn Cayer and her team have fashioned a superb combination of flavors to complement and highlight the qualities of each varietal and stylistic impressions of the daughters Faller, the winemakers at this ancient family run estate. A full menu follows, and remember to check out our Midweek Reality Break Special for lodging.
Sante’!!
