Demarest Hill Winery, New York

Demarest Hill Winery in Warwick, New York is in the Hudson River Region AVA. The owner and winemaker, Francesco Ciummo, also has an onsite distillery.  An article about Demarest Hill Winery is available online.

This week we enjoyed the winery’s Warwick Black Pearl Reserve 2001. The wine had aged well and offered notes of licorice, plums and dark black berries. This wine would pair well with grilled steak and other beef dishes.

Demarest produces numerous wine products including traditional red and white wines, fruit wines and a Port-style wine. Other products available are Applejack, Sherry, Grappa and Bombita Vinegar.

Fall is a great time to travel to New York’s picturesque countryside. While traveling be sure to look for farmers markets and take some country fresh goodness back to your home.
