CT Wine Festival 2009

Just in time!

Whew.
Just as we roll out the CT Wine Trail blog, the CT Dept. of Agriculture Marketing Bureau and the CT Wine Trail are throwing the 2009 Connecticut Wine Festival.
This is quite exciting because, well, I get to plan the order of my character assassination of CT's farm wineries. Okay, okay, "character assassination" is an overstatement. I just plan on being honest. Regardless, it'll be a great opportunity to plan my route and get a feel for what's going on in the world of Nutmeg State wine, or Charter Oak state wine, or whatever.
The festival is to be held August 1st & 2nd at the Goshen Fairgrounds. It's 25 bones per person, plus additional tasting tickets (you get 20, lush) or bottles or trinkets or cab fare home.

side note: I'm pretty sure there aren't any cab companies locally, so hire a limo or bring a designated driver, or gasp use the spit buckets

If that ain't enough, there's also the CT Shoreline Wine Festival August 15th & 16th hosted by Bishop's Orchards.
