Osmote Winery Dinner, Tuesday, January 28th, 8pm
Join the team from Osmote Winery and Chef Charlie Marshall for a sampling of beautiful Finger Lakes wines by winemaker Benjamin Riccardi. Although he has deep roots in the Finger Lakes, his winemaking is influenced from lessons learned across the globe. He has worked abroad in France, New Zealand, Australia, and Chile, and through the USA in Sonoma, Long Island, and Manhattan in addition to the Finger Lakes. Making wine in the Finger Lakes is an opportunity to return home and contribute to the fabric of the region and its permaculture. Ben feels that by adding to the viticulture of Upstate New York, Osmote is helping to ensure that central New York remains a vibrant, green ecosystem and that the Finger Lakes water stays protected by the green filters of the vine rows. This should maintain a natural state around the lakes, so that future generations can grow up much the same way he did.
Although he is the founding owner and winemaker of Osmote, Ben is the first to acknowledge he’s just a part of what is a family and community project. This project was born as a collaboration between peers, where winemakers could explore new technique and work to more purely express the Finger Lakes terroir.
