Enjoy the bounty of summer wines

By Becca Zidik

St. Supéry Estate Vineyards embraces the very best of Napa Valley and French château  traditions to create award-winning wine. The flavors of St. Supéry Sauvignon Becca Zidik_HeaderBlanc and Chardonnay blend just as well as the traditions of the famed winery. With 100 percent estate grown grapes, the Sauvignon Blanc paints a picture reminiscent of a warm, sunny afternoon in Killington. Fruity notes dance about the palate and incorporate grapefruit, passion fruit, and citrus; just like the colors of a Vermont summer. Let’s hope you’re imagining popping greens from Killington Mountain, cool hues of blue from the Summit Pond, and a bright sun shining in the afternoon sky! (This wine also pairs super well with a fresh fish dish.)

Similarly, St. Supéry’s Chard is an elegant take on a well known classic. Think, French Riviera meets the palm trees of the tropics. Honeysuckle, dried apricot, and toasted oak all combine to bring life to your palate! Whether after a long day hiking the trails of Killington, mountain biking, or a long day of work, St. Supéry’s Chard is here for you, just like a best friend is supposed to be. A special something about St. Supéry: the winery is a part of the Napa Green Land and Napa Green Winery programs, which promote environmental stewardships, renewal initiatives, and habitat preservation.

Plans are in the making for a new downtown hotel in Rutland. Reading about it prompted me to think about the lodging options available to people in the 1950s when I was growing up. My friend Mary Jane and I took a fun trip down memory lane, recalling the places we could remember. But to…

Stepping out of the gondola a little after 4:10 p.m., we can barely see anything with our goggles on. The sun is scheduled to set in about seven minutes, and you can feel the darkness. The lamps are on along all the wooden railings heading toward the peak lodge, and you can see the patrol…

Horned larks enliven sleeping fields

December 26, 2024
Halloween is long past, but you may notice devilish figures hanging out in scrubby fields and open areas this winter: horned larks. These birds are North America’s only true lark species. They reside year-round in parts of the Northeast, such as Vermont’s Champlain Valley, but disperse across the region more widely in winter, when the…
