A special sunset cruise featuring New Hampshire-made wines will sail on the M/S Mount Washington in August. Seven NH wine makers will be onboard to serve samples of their best wines and ciders.  Accompanying the wines will be a variety of hot and cold hors d’oeuvres offered at stations around the ship.  A selection of wines will be also available to purchase by the glass from the ship’s bar.  The M/S Mount Washington has three enclosed decks -- each with a lounge, dance floor, and seating – in addition to outside deck space for enjoying the fresh air, lake views, and sunset.  Live music for listening and dancing will round out the entertainment.  The Margate Hotel is offering special Sail & Stay rates for the cruise.  Call 1-800-MARGATE and ask for the Wine Tasting Cruise rates by July 17.  Participating wineries are:  Candia Vineyards, Farnum Hill Ciders, Flag Hill Winery & Distillery, Haunting Whisper Vineyards, Jewell Towne Vineyards, Labelle Winery, and Zorvino Vineyards.

The cruise is sponsored by Mount Washington Cruises, the NH Winery Association, and Grab Your Bag Travel.  “This is an opportunity for NH residents and visitors to discover and taste some of the best wines NH has to offer in a beautiful setting…” said Tom Zack, Wine Director of Zorvino Vineyards.
