A cool morning on a country road: the van hums along, vineyard rows opening to river views, and the Hudson dares you to look away. Guests climb out at the first stop to breathe the fermented fruit of a growing region — grapes planted here long before California made a name for itself — while the host folds the day around local stories and a full lunch.
