Adding on to the other interesting made-in-Vermont products I came across this weekend, I also stopped by the Boyden Valley Winery for a taste of some of Vermont's home-grown grapes. We tasted a really amazing ice wine while we were there. Notes of apricot, green apple, and an underlying smoothness that reminded me of, oddly, avocado. We picked up a bottle but haven't tried pairing it with anything yet. Offhand, I bet it would make an interesting accompaniment to Valrhona's Manjari, since it's such a lovely fruity bar. But like I said, I haven't tried it.
