Its wine
festival season in New York, and Luxury Experience was there to partake of the festivities during
the NYC Spring Crush Wine & Artisanal Food Festival presented
by Crush Wine Experiences. Held in the Grand Hall at St. Mary's in New York City's Lower East
Side, oenophiles gathered to experience wines from Argentina, France, Italy,
Portugal, Spain, and from the United States with wines from California and New
York state. Combined with artisanal tastings, it was a perfect Saturday evening
in New York City.
Formerly
known as New York Wine Events, the NYC Spring Crush Wine & Artisanal Food
Festival held on Saturday, May 20, 2023, offered patrons the opportunity of
attending either the afternoon or the evening session with special early
entrance VIP options.

VIP Bubbly Bar
We opted to
attend the VIP evening session, which provided us with early access to the
event and also access to the "VIP Bubbly Bar." As fans of "bubbles" the
champagne and sparkling wines were dear to our hearts and palates, and we
enjoyed sampling the various expressions of champagne and sparkling wines
offered.

Li-Lac Chocolates
Champagne
and chocolates are a delicious combination especially when paired with Li-Lac
Chocolates made in New York which is Manhattan's
oldest chocolate house. There was also a selection of artisanal cheeses and
crusty bread from John Wm. Macy's Family Bakery to pair with the champagne and sparkling wines.
A Sampling

Patrons had
the opportunity to take their palates on a whirlwind wine trip by sampling
wines presented from around the world and the United States. A few of the wines

A Sampling
of Some of the Spirits Available for Tasting
In addition
to the VIP Bubbly Bar and the wine offerings, spirits were also
well-represented, and we enjoyed sampling products that we had sampled before
as well as sampling products that were new to us.
A Sampling
of Some of the Artisanal Foods and Beverages Available for Tasting
There was
also an assortment of delectable artisanal foods to sample on their own, or to
pair with the wine and spirits offered.
NYC Spring
Crush Wine & Artisanal Food Festival was an enjoyable evening of discovering
and tasting wine, spirits, and food, and engaging in stimulating conservation
about the products.
Until next
time, cheers and Bon Appetit!
