Exciting things are happening at Honora Winery & Vineyard and J'Ville Brewery this weekend!! Janice has been very busy and we have four new wines in our line. The wine line up is; Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Alicante, and Petit Sirah. Full flight tasting are still $5.00 and we offer a discount on a case. It's easy to fill a case when there are six wines to choose from.
On tap this weekend we have Blackberry Wheat, Dubbel, Red Ale and Brown Ale. All are delicious, refreshing and smooth. We have a great cheese selection that we would be happy to help you pair with any of our wines or beers. Grown up grilled cheese sandwiches have become very popular here. (No, that does not just mean that we don't cut the crust off). We use six different cheeses and chutney, a combination that creates a melty, gooey, deliciousness.
Also this weekend is our last BBQ of the season. Join us in the vineyard on Collins Road in West Halifax for a Southern BBQ of pork, mac and cheese, bacon potato salad, green beans and peach cobbler for dessert. Hot dogs will be available for the young'uns.

Pancakes and Issues with Rep. Laura Sibilia
State Representative Laura Sibilia will be hosting a breakfast discussion on current and upcoming Vermont legislative topics on Saturday, September 10th from 8:30 am to 10 am at the Dover Town Hall located at 183 Taft Brook Road, Dover, VT.
In November 2016, Vermonters will elect a new Governor, Lieutenant Governor and a number of new legislators who will, in turn, elect a new Speaker of the House and Senate President. Items that will be waiting for this newly elected leadership include addressing an economy struggling to maintain an adequate supply of workers, the second year of education reform implementation (Act 46), a federally required cleanup of Lake Champlain and ensuring we have sustainable funding for Vermont's health care reforms. Advocates have indicated that in 2016 they will also be pushing for legislation supporting paid family leave, universal background checks and marijuana legalization. The discussion is free and open to the public. Donations to offset the cost of the breakfast will be accepted. For more information on Rep. Laura Sibilia or her re-election campaign, visit
