What could make a better summer evening experience than relaxing under the stars at the Performing Arts Center at Simsbury Meadows listening to great live music with a glass of great wine? Learning 2Fly…as in 2FlyWines…which has some terrific recommendations for wines to bring to the Hartford Symphony Orchestra’s Talcott Mountain Music Festival!
2Fly Wines based in East Hartford is a purveyor of fine wines from the McLaren Vale region of Australia. Some of the world’s most elegant and truly unique wines come from this tiny valley located 30 minutes southeast of Adelaide. The wineries are owned and managed by people who are true viticulturists and have an unparalleled love of the soil and vines. Each year, president Chris Didden personally selects 20 to 30 new wines that will be brought back for distribution through 2Fly, which has become one of the fastest growing wine distributing companies in the northeast. Visit www.2flywines.com to learn more.
2Fly Wines is featuring Chardonnay, Moscato, Cabernet, Cabernet/Shiraz blend and other varieties at several area wine merchants that will pair perfectly with your picnic supper at TMMF. These are single vineyard estate wines made by Conte Estate. Daniel Conte is a third generation winemaker and well respected for making “Rhone” style wines, which are smooth and silky with many layers of flavors and textures. Conte wines have received numerous awards around the world, including several Gold and Silver medals.
Look for the Talcott Mountain Music Festival/2Fly Wines posters and bottle hang tags at the following locations. A portion of the proceeds from each bottle of 2Fly Wines purchased during the Talcott Mountain Music Festival dates, June 22 through July 20, will be donated to help HSO continue to bring great music to our community.
