Adirondack Winery’s Best Seller, Strawsling, Snags GOLD at Tasters Guild International Wine Competition

Adirondack Winery is proud to announce that its # 1 selling wine, Strawsling, brought home a GOLD medal from the annual Tasters Guild International Wine Competition; which was held May 1-4 in Grand Rapids Michigan.

Adirondack Winery’s Strawsling (a strawberry-infused Riesling wine) was professionally judged alongside approximately 2,000 other wines entered into the competition from over 15 countries and 30 states. Founded in 1987, the Tasters Guild is a society of wine and food enthusiasts with chapters all over the nation. This competition is known for judging wines with the mainstream consumer in mind; not the wine “connoisseur”.  Adirondack Winery also earned a Silver medal for its Cabernet Franc and Bronze Medals for its Gewurztraminer and Red Coat Reserve Merlot wines.

“Strawsling has been our top seller since we opened in 2008 and its popularity has only grown exponentially since,” said Adirondack Winery President. “It’s great to be able to say that professional judges agree with our customers!” she added. Adirondack Winery’s wines are also available at about 40 liquor/wine stores throughout New York and Strawsling is the one you are guaranteed to find at almost all of them, as customers demand it.

 “Our Strawsling is a nicely balanced, semi-sweet Riesling infused with a delicate Strawberry essence, which we age in Stainless Steel tanks,” said Mike Pardy, Adirondack Winery CEO and Wine-Maker.  “This wine is best enjoyed chilled and its lower alcohol level (appox. 8.5%)allows people to enjoy it not only with food, but also as a casual afternoon drink on a summer day,” he added.

Strawsling’s wine label features a photograph of hot air balloons taking off into the sky at the annual Adirondack Balloon Festival. Ms. Pardy took this photo, as she does all of Adirondack Winery’s labels, which all feature other local scenes.

Adirondack Winery started entering International wine competitions in early 2009 and with these latest awards, 32 of its wines have earned 74 medals in total.

Our Wine Glasses Have Runneth Over! A Look Back on 2012, With Gratitude.

As we reflect back on yet another great year here at Adirondack Winery, we realize that we have so much to be thankful for. With new awards and new employees, as well as customers, both new and old visiting us again and again, each year seems to be better than the last and 2012 was no different.

We welcomed tens of thousands of customers to the Tasting Room in 2012 and are thankful to our loyal customers who return time and time again as well as our new customers that gave us a chance to please their palates! From sharing your positive experiences with us on Trip Advisor and Facebook to requesting us on your local liquor store shelves, you are the reason we continue to grow and love the business that we are in.

Our customers have become our friends over the years and we love that you are able to share in our milestones and allow us to be a part of yours. We celebrated our 4^th Anniversary this year with some of our closest customers and friends, since you are the reason we are able to keep bringing you your favorite locally-made, hand-crafted wines year after year. We celebrated with games, delicious wine-infused foods and of course, tastes of Adirondack Winery wines! We look forward to celebrating year 5 with all of you in 2013!

We love seeing all of your pictures on Facebook of your visits to the Tasting Room and how you have incorporated Adirondack Winery into your holidays, family gatherings or just Friday nights at home with your friends and loved ones. It is so great to be able to see our wines in the homes of the people that love them the most!

Some of you have even allowed us to be a part of the most important days of your lives. More and more of you have given us the opportunity to have our wines on your tables as favors and gifts at your weddings this year. We are glad to see that so many of you find our custom-labeled wine to be a classy and personal touch to your wedding day that not only provides your guests with delicious wine, but a personalized keepsake to remember your special day. We are thankful to all of our brides for allowing us to share in such an important day in your lives.

We have had so much fun celebrating bachelorette parties with many of you as well! With tastes of our wines, cheese, a hand-painted bridal glass & custom-labeled bottle of wine, we have created a party package that gives you a fun “last outing” with your closest girlfriends as well as a keepsake to remember it!

Many of you don’t live nearby, which used to cause Adirondack Winery withdrawals after the summer season, but thanks to more of you that are shopping online and requesting us in your local liquor stores, there is more access than ever to your favorite wines!

We can finally please our NJ & MI customers year-round! We recently added Michigan and New Jersey to our list of states we can ship to, allowing us to now ship wine directly to 21 states! For those of you who do not live in those states, our online partners, WeSpeakWine.com, EmpireWine.com and Exit9WineandLiquor.com can ship to many of you.

In addition to our online partners, we are thankful for our wholesalers who continue to support us and provide our customers with their favorite wines year-round. With their help and our wonderful customers who have asked for (& some demanded) our wines be carried at these stores, we are able to reach more of you each year.

Some new awards can be added to our list of achievements in 2012 as well. Our Pinot Grigio, Semillon and Strawsling won us 3 silver medals at the World Value Wine Challenge while Cabernet Franc brought home the silver in the American Wine Society. Our Wild Red, Blue Twilight and Gewurztraminer are some of the other wines that added to our collection of Bronze medals as well!

Our employees have also played an indispensable role in our success this year. Thank you to our knowledgeable & fun Tasting Room staff, Maryellen, our dependable Tasting Room Director who is the backbone of our excellent customer service and who keeps our store running smoothly; Danielle, our creative and friendly Marketing Assistant whom without we would have no blogs, Facebook posts, emails, parties or custom-labeled wine services! Last but not least, we would like to thank Brad, our Assistant Wine Maker and Richard Pardy (Mike’s dad), who work diligently and with great care behind the scenes, helping Mike to make award-winning wines & keep the wine flowing!

Thank you to all who continue to play a part in the success of Adirondack Winery. We look forward to 2013 and bringing you the wines and experiences you have come to know and love here at the Tasting Room.

Cheers!
Sasha & Mike

How about one of our wine racks filled with their favorite varietals? Or one of our cork cages? A House of Corks or a photo frame cork cage are great ways for you to thank them for their hard work while giving them a way to remember their favorite wines & occasions.

Now, for the rest of your holiday shopping. We know it gets harder every year to think of new gifts for the ones you love.

For the men we have funny, wine-themed t-shirts, cork cages and even a pocket wine tool that leaves no reason to leave his favorite bottle of Adirondack Winery wine unopened!

We have no shortage of stocking stuffers from corkscrews to bottle stoppers, cheese boards to wine glass charms and more we truly have something for everyone here at the Tasting Room. If you can’t make up your mind, a gift certificate to Adirondack Winery makes the perfect gift.

Be Thankful for Thanksgiving Wine!

Thanksgiving is just over a week away which gives you just enough time to get your menu set, grocery list together and most importantly, stock up on Adirondack Winery wine! Wine is an essential part of perfecting your Thanksgiving menu and with a helping hand from us & some great holiday deals, you are sure to give your guests a feast to be thankful for!

With turkey being the star of the show, you want to be sure to serve wines that best compliment this Thanksgiving staple. It’s best to have at least one white, one red and one fruity wine available to your guests so that every type of wine lover can fully enjoy their dinner experience.

For a white wine, we suggest our Sauvignon Blanc. The well-balanced acidity of this light and crisp white wine makes for a perfect pairing and the beautiful label featuring Shepard Park in fall will add to the décor of your Thanksgiving table.

For a red wine, we suggest our Pinot Noir. Not only is it our #1-selling red wine, but the fairly tame tannins, subtle earthy undertones and fruit features will show well with the traditional flavors of turkey and stuffing.

For a fruity wine, we suggest a Thanksgiving favorite at Adirondack Winery… our Red Carriage! This cranberry Chianti started out as a limited-edition wine that was so well received, we decided to make it one of our regular varietals. The crisp taste of fresh cranberries and velvety richness of Chianti make this wine the perfect companion for your Thanksgiving turkey, stuffing and just about all of your Thanksgiving sides & desserts!

For a twist on your traditional Thanksgiving menu, don’t just serve wine with the food, serve wine in the food! Try these Port Wine Cranberry  Brownies made with Calm After the Storm for a dessert that will leave mouths watering! For added enjoyment, serve with Red Carriage or Calm After the Storm.

White wine mashed potatoes are another way to take your holiday menu up a notch! Our Chardonnay will take your boring old potatoes to another level; and if your guests don’t like the food… serve more wine!

There is still plenty of time to stock up on Adirondack Winery wine before the holiday and we have some great holiday deals that will leave you truly thankful this Thanksgiving!

We here at Adirondack Winery would like to wish you all a very happy, healthy and wine-filled Thanksgiving.
Cheers!

Spice Up Your Summer BBQ with Adirondack Winery!

Barbeques are one of the best parts of summer and what better way to take it up a notch than to add some Adirondack Winery wine! We’ve got a few ideas to take your summer barbeque from good to great and leave your guests going back for seconds… maybe thirds!

A signature cocktail is a great way to set your barbeque apart from the rest. It’s a good thing our Wine Wednesday recipes are now available on our online store! Serve our refreshing Strawsling Slush, Fireworks Sangria or Berry Blush Punch with wine ice cream and your guests will be talking about it all summer long!

Anyone can serve up some burgers & hot dogs but pairing your menu with Adirondack Winery wines will bring out the best in your favorite barbeque foods! Serving fruit salad? Pair it with Prospect Mountain White, Strawsling or Serene White for added refreshment and flavor. Shrimp skewers go wonderfully with Semillon and try your grilled chicken with our Pinot Grigio!

Burgers can be paired with Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon or Pinot Noir, but if you like burgers and you  like red wine than you’ll love these red wine-infused burgers! And why have regular macaroni and cheese when you have Chardonnay Macaroni and Cheese!

Now that we’ve covered the menu you’re going to need a few little extras to make your summer barbeque complete! No one likes a wet wine glass dripping all over their summer’s best, or a refreshing white wine that turns luke warm before it’s finished. Woozies are the best way to solve this problem! With brand new designs, you’ll not only look good while enjoying your favorite wine, but these stretchable, washable wine glass and bottle covers will keep your wine the perfect temperature while keeping your hands and clothes nice and dry!

Our Picnic Stix Wine Set is a great way to keep your wine close by without the worry of tipping and spilling. Simply stake these bottle and glass holders into the ground and your Adirondack Winery wine is just an arms-length away!

I hope you’ll be able to use some (or all) of these ideas at your next summer gathering. All this talk about barbeques has made me hungry… and thirsty! So, until next time… Cheers!
