Their latest example is its Hudson Valley Artist Series wine label competition. Original art works to be considered for use on a Millbrook label were submitted by artists participating in its annual "Art in the Loft" art exhibit. The winning label, created by fine art photographer Liz Okon, was chosen by visitors at the winery. A different piece of her work finished third last year.
A portion of the proceeds from the purchases of the Artist Series wine this year will go to the Dutchess Arts Council and Okon. Her artwork, titled "Road to Destiny," will adorn bottles of 2015 Millbrook Chardonnay Proprietor's Special Reserve ($25) and 2014 Millbrook Cabernet Franc ($20), both available in limited quantities.
Millbrook's next major event is a grand tasting of its portfolio, which will include several wines from Villa Pillo and Williams Selyem, scheduled for noon to 5 p.m. Saturday, December 3. Details are available online.
Millbrook Vineyards & Winery is located at 26 Wing Road in Millbrook, Dutchess County. Phone: (800) 662-9463 or (845) 677-8383.
