Our cups ranneth over this weekend as we followed Summer Saturday country roads to visit two of our favorite wineries on the
Shawangunk Wine Trail. If you're geared for a "Sideways"-style wine experience, save the airfare and gas up for an easy drive an hour or so north of NYC to
Applewood Orchards and Winery 
just outside of Warwick, NY (do not miss a tasting with the lovely Christine)

and the
Warwick Valley Winery & Distillery just outside of Florida, NY (if it's not busy, Keith is good company). The cider and wine at Applewood win hands down, and the food at Warwick is excellent; both feature live music, and are perfect for lazy day-long escapes. Wine-adventurers will also appreciate the unbridled ambition on display at
Demarest Hill Winery where no form of fermentation is off limits. Have a grape time!
