Lately it seems like Spain is on a roll or that our palates are set to appreciate what we try from Spain. You may recall that in our last email, […]

Rosés
Nothing says warm weather and relaxation as unambiguously as a glass of rosé. While we enjoy a crisp white as frequently or even more frequently than we drink rosé, when the rosé rack is overflowing at Windham Wines– as it is now– we know that summer is underway.

Fresh Seafood from Community Dock
Welcome back to Lynn and Maria Steyaart, owners of Community Dock, a mobile seafood market that brings fresh Alaskan seafood ethically caught by Lynn back to us in Vermont. You can be assured that the fish offered through Community Dock are wild, not farmed; they are caught individually on lines, not en mass in nets– it is low volume, high-quality fishing. Come by next time Community Dock pulls into our parking lot (May 2nd), meet Maria, pick up some fresh, ethically-fished seafood– join their CSA!– and visit us at Windham Wines. We’ll help you select a lovely bottle of wine to accompany your repast.

Wine Discoveries 2023
Our byline invites you to “shop locally, taste globally.” That is easier now to do than ever. Our distributors are working with more importers from more countries, bringing in wines made from grapes of which we’ve not heard, from regions for which we consult maps. Windham Wines now offers wines from 17 different countries. Within the US, we carry wines from 9 different states. The tasting team was active over 2023, and what a year of discovery it was for us.
Happy Holidays from Windham Wines 2023
We are nearly at the end of another year. When we review the year, it is through our memory and, as Robert Burns reminds us, those memories are made within relationships– deaths, births, celebrations (weddings, bar/bat mitzvahs, retirement) jobs, moves, trips, dinners, catastrophes. It is especially during the difficult times that our friendship and family connections are so very essential. I am grateful for my “trusty friends” who are always willing to offer me a hand and a “cup of kindness.” I hope my hand has been extended as steadfastly when they have needed it. When we get to be of a certain age, “auld land syne” extends back impressively and, if we are really fortunate, we are still connected to some of those “auld acquaintance.”
