Winslow’s Tavern Offers Personal Vintage


This week I had a visit from Tracey Barry Hunt, of Winslow’s Tavern. We are both Vassar grads, so it was with special pleasure that I welcomed her for a quick bed & breakfast tour. Winslow's will open May 14. Tracy came with menus for our guests and a bottle of vintage wine. Not just any wine, mind you. To celebrate five years in business Winslow’s Tavern is offering its own vintage from Sonoma, California. Tracey said Winslow’s will celebrate with guests this spring with the following treats:
• Sweet Sundays: Receive a complimentary dessert with the purchase of an entrée.
• Two for Tuesdays: Order one entree and receive a complimentary entrée of equal value.
• Wine around the World Wednesdays: Every Wednesday get 25% off all wines from a particular country.

Of course, Sven and I had to taste the new Winslow’s Tavern vintage in order to guide our guests, so we did, sharing it with a friend from France. Yum! Here is what she had to say: “Smooth, slightly fruity, just light enough. Subtle and very pleasant to drink.”
