Boyden Valley Winery, check!

Fall has arrived in Vermont.  The foliage is just starting to turn.  Boy, is it going to be a brightly colored fall!  This afternoon we went to the Underhill Harvest Market.  This was my second or third time going.  I just love it.  Is it a quintessential small town fall festival.  The church ladies make food.   The Lions club men make fry onions.  People sell crafts.  Neighbors have yard sales...  It is a great time!


Anyway, before heading home we decided to head just a bit further up the road to stop at Boyden Valley Winery.  This was a much anticipated visit for me.  I passed this place so many times when I was ski instructing at Smuggler's Notch.  I've always wanted to stop but never quite had the time.  Well, it was worth the wait!  Of the four wineries that I have been to lately, this was by far the best.  I really liked their stuff.  They have a white wine called Cow Tipper.  Isn't that name awesome!  And, oh my, they make a liqueur called Vermont Ice Apple Creme.  It is made with Vermont Ice Apple Cider, Apple Brandy, and cream.  Amazing!
