ELLENVILLE — If you’re too anxious for the 10th annual Hudson Valley Wine & Food Fest that is scheduled for September, you may want to consider warming up for it with a series of related food and wine events preceding it over the next six months.
The first is scheduled for Sunday, March 20, at Aroma Thyme Bistro at 165 Canal Street in this Ulster County town on Sunday, March 20. Foods will be paired with wines from Cereghino Smith. Cereghino Smith is a small winery in nearby Bloomington that gets its grapes from small vineyards in New York and California.
Chef Marcus Guiliano (upper right) and his wife, Jamie, opened the restaurant on New Year’s Eve 2003. They specialize in fresh, organic local fare.
The event will be held from 4 to 6 p.m. with wine and small bites at the bar. Admission is $25 per person, plus tax and tip. Reservations, which are recommended, may be made by calling (845) 647-3000.
Attendees will be given a coupon for discount admission to the Hudson Valley Wine & Food Fest. The festival is set for September 10-11 at the Ulster County Fairgrounds in Rhinebeck. Other pre-festival events will be announced periodically, although you can check them out on your own time online.
