Rich History in the Hudson Valley

I just read another article about Mark Miller, previous owner of Benmarl Winery. You can find the article here - http://tinyurl.com/4pzwoa

Living in the Hudson Valley the majority of my life, you never think of what is in your own back yard. Take a look at the amount of history and beauty that surrounds us. It's quite amazing.

Mark Miller's story is very interesting. As I said before, I had the opportunity to meet him and have him give me a tour of his winery and art work. It wasn't until I got very involved in the local wine industry did I realize his importance.

When you travel through the valley and stop in a local tasting room, the person serving you is very likely to be the owner, or winemaker. You just never know. They are full of information and enjoy sharing it. Don't be afraid to ask questions.
