Wine lovers in the Mohawk Valley have a full weekend to take advantage of their favorite wines during the wine tasting weekend, March 14-16. The festivities begin Friday when Vintage Spirits in Herkimer and Ilion Wine and Spirits host a wine tasting from 5-8 p.m. On Saturday there will be a dinner for the winemakers at the Crystal Chandelier restaurant, then Sunday is the culmination event at Herkimer County Community College where a wine tasting will take place, judging and awards will be given out, and even wine classes will be held in the Cogar Gallery at the college. The event is being sponsored by the Crusaders, a men’s group from Sts. Anthony and Joseph’s Church. Organizer of the event and vice president of the Crusaders, John Piseck says more than 40 kinds of wine will be available for guests to sample and all will be judged by a panel of celebrity judges who will be behind closed doors.
