CRUSH

Lake Chelan This Week

Thursday, October 3, 2019

T

he Chelan AVA is distinguished by a significant “lake effect” that creates mild and favorable temperatures for surrounding areas, resulting in a longer growing season and a reduced risk of frost. You can taste the efficiency of our winter, the quick thaw of spring, our intense summers and a gorgeous harvest in a glass of Lake Chelan AVA wine. Grapes have been grown in the Chelan Valley since before the turn of the 20th century. Today there are nearly 30 wineries and tasting rooms around the lake. Each offers a unique and special experience for wine lovers.

What makes the Lake Chelan American Viticulture Area (AVA) so unique in geological terms is that our soil is relatively young with volcanic pumice on top of a glacially aged scape. It’s the kind of soil vines love to struggle in under the blanket of hot summer days and cool summer nights.

Annual Lake Chelan Wine Valley Events

Visit Chelan Wineries All Year Long

SPRING BARREL RELEASE

April 18-19 & 25-26, 2020 The vines wake up in April and the brilliant whites and delightful pinks we bottled a few months ago are now ready to taste. This is The Weekend for White wine and Rose’ lovers. We take great joy in seeing you relish your first taste of what will be your favorite summer sippers.

FALL BARREL TASTING

November 29-DECEMBER 1, 2019 Give thanks with us in Wine Country & experience the Harvest season. A weekend that has it all: great views, long conversations at the tasting counter, the smell of oak barrels wet with wine and wood smoke in the morning air. There’s a little bit of breathing room everywhere you go and everyone you meet has relaxed into post-harvest glee. Taste warming reds right from the barrel and linger over a sample of what could be a double-gold winner at future wine competitions.

RED WINE AND CHOCOLATE

February 8-9 and 15-16, 2020 Celebrate the month of love with artisan wine and chocolate pairings. For two weekends in February, the Lake Chelan Wine Valley hums with couples on romantic retreats and friends gather for a much needed winter getaway. Our tasting rooms fill with smiling faces and the sound of surprised delight at each taste of red wine and chocolate. Romance, limousine rides, library wines, chocolate, wine… For nine days, immerse yourself in all things love!

SPRING BARREL TASTING

May 16-17, 2020 Like eating cherries from the tree or bread just out of the oven, Barrel Tasting weekend offers the ability to enjoy a taste of something right from the source. It’s also your first opportunity to taste our next great release.

LAKE CHELAN CRUSH

October 3-4 & 10-11, 2020 Join us during the autumn month of October in back-to-back weekends as we celebrate our annual Crush Festival. The barrel room doors swing wide open and the work in the vineyards comes to the crush pad. Come taste, stomp and dance. Watch the grapes tumble through the press and taste the raw juice that it produces.

Get the inside scoop from the cellar master or wine maker on how the wine will taste come bottling time. Sit down with us at the table for a harvest party or a winemaker dinner and share in the experience of harvest season.

GOOD READS RECOMMENDATIONS COURTESY OF RIVERWALK BOOKS

Memory makes reality. That’s what New York City cop Barry Sutton is learning as he investigates the devastating phenomenon the media has dubbed False Memory Syndrome—a mysterious affliction that drives its victims mad with memories of a life they never lived. Neuroscientist Helena Smith has dedicated her life to creating a technology that will let us preserve our most precious moments of our pasts. As Barry searches for the truth, he comes face-to-face with an opponent more terrifying than any disease—a force that attacks not just our minds but the very fabric of the past. And as its effects begin to unmake the world as we know it, only he and Helena, working together, will stand a chance at defeating it.

ON EARTH WE’RE BRIEFLY GORGEOUS

BY OCEAN VUONG

On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous is a letter from a son to a mother who cannot read. Written when the speaker, Little Dog, is in his late twenties, the letter unearths a family’s history that began before he was born — a history whose epicenter is rooted in Vietnam — and serves as a doorway into parts of his life his mother has never known, all of it leading to an unforgettable revelation. At once a witness to the fraught yet undeniable love between a single mother and her son, it is also a brutally honest exploration of race, class, and masculinity.

THE MOST FUN WE EVER HAD

BY CLAIRE LOMBARDO When Marilyn Connolly and David Sorenson fall in love in the 1970s, they are blithely ignorant of all that’s to come. By 2016, their four radically different adult daughters are each in a state of unrest. Above it all, the daughters share the lingering fear that they will never find a love quite like their parents’. As the novel moves through the tumultuous year following the arrival of Jonah Bendt--given up by one of the daughters in a closed adoption fifteen years before--we are shown the rich and varied tapestry of the Sorensons’ past: years marred by adolescence, infidelity, and resentment, but also the transcendent moments of joy that make everything else worthwhile.

A BIGGER AND BETTER COMES TO DON MORSE MEMORIAL PARK KAREN LARSEN

LAKE CHELAN THIS WEEK

In the early 1990’s the Hydroplane and Raceboat Museum located in Kent started bringing Unlimited hydroplanes to Lake Chelan every summer and letting volunteers ride in them as a way to thank the volunteers for their service.

It didn’t take long for hydroplane fans to figure out that if they came to Lake Chelan the first weekend in October they might get the chance to see some vintage hydroplanes.

Museum director David Wiliams said that he and other organizers began to notice how many spectators there were and wondered if this couldn’t be material for an event. In looking for a name, they thought that many of the boats are made of mahogany and Chelan is wine country, so why not ‘Mahogany and Merlot’?

That was 2009 and this year Mahogany and Merlot, to be held in Don Morse Memorial Park Oct. 4-6, will see its’ 10th season. The event coincides with the first weekend of Lake Chelan Crush, so the name and the theme of antique boats and good wine becomes even more appropriate. This year it will be bigger than ever as the Lake Chelan Chamber of Commerce has partnered as co-organizers with the Hydroplane and Raceboat Museum.

The Chamber has worked to expand the activities in the park to include lawn games, live music, go-karts, a wine grape stomp, over 40 vendors and a fireworks show on Oct. 5.

There will also be a beer garden, wine tents and vendor contests. The event is designed to have something for people of all ages.

This year there are three separate ticket levels: A Park Pass provides a chance to see the boats and take part in all the park activities for $8 per person. Children 10 and under are free. A Park Pass and Pit Pass provides all of the benefits of a Park Pass plus the chance to access the pits for $15. A VIP All-Access Pass adds a Saturday night barbecue catered by Burch Mountain Barbeque, three drink coupons, a swag bag and access to the VIP tent for $75 per person. Tickets are good for both days.

Tickets can be purchased in advance online at mahoganyandmerlot.com or at the park entrance on Oct. 5 and 6. From 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Oct. 4 there will be a Boat and Car Show on Woodin Avenue which is open to the public. This will include live music and Street Dance by the Superchargers.

The event also includes an Unlimited Drivers School for those who are looking for the opportunity to learn how to drive a hydroplane and the chance to try their hands at the helm under the guidance of an experienced driver.

Tickets for the Unlimited Drivers School are sold through the museum.

Williams said that this year it is looking like there will be 8 Unlimited hydroplanes, 40 limited hydroplanes and 35 antique and classic runabouts, or pleasure boats, entered in the event.

All proceeds benefit the Hydroplane and Raceboat Museum, a 501(c)(3) non-profit.
