Two weeks ago, Keri and I took our annual trip to the Nashoba winery for some apple picking and some wine tasting. We were joined by our friends Katie and Matt, who were making their first trip to the winery. Nashoba is a great place to go for a nice picnic where you can sip some wine and cheese on a blanket or one of the many picnic tables. Keri and I both had the opportunity to sample 8 different Nashoba made wines, spirits and beers. Since we are still working on our tasting rubric, we will save our first wine review for another day. My all-time favorite wine comes from Nashoba; a Raspberry Dessert Wine. The wine is not has a mild sweetness and really tastes like what you would think fresh raspberry juice would taste like. With a smooth consistency, the wine is on the thicker side with just the right amount of tartness. Keri loves the Riesling and we always travel home with a bottle. After our tasting, we all shared a bottle of their Maiden's blush and a bottle of Riesling accompanied by a delicious assortment of cheese's and dips we brought from home.
If you get a chance to travel to Bolton, MA be sure to check out Nashoba!
