Mathew tends 75 acres of organically farmed vines at Rorick Heritage Vineyard, continuing a tradition inspired by his grandfather’s storytelling and passion for wine. Before winemaking, he’s lived a few lives! From repairing submarine telescopes for the U.S. Navy, skateboarding professionally, and even building electric guitars! All of which make his wines (and his stories) that much more unforgettable.
This is a rare chance to sip, learn, and hang out with one of California’s most original winemakers. You don’t want to miss it!!
“Chertok is a family name meaning ‘little cherti’ referring to the spirits of Russian folklore that were believed to inhabit the world alongside us. Chertok Wines began with a simple mission: to produce authentic New England country wine. ”
Meet The Maker: Chertok Wines
Thursday, October 9th from 5 PM - 7 PM
Enjoy a free tasting with our local Vermont friend Max from Chertok Wines! He’ll share a little about trying to conjure up rustic, natural wines that taste like our New England home (and don’t break the bank!)
