"The
Retailer Award for 'Excellence in Promoting New York Wines to
Consumers' was presented to Vintage New York, a unique
wine store in the SoHo area of Manhattan which sells only New
York wines. Owners Bob Ransom and Susan Wine opened the attractive
store as an extension of Rivendell Winery in the Hudson Valley,
and in less that two years of operation Vintage New York has already
been rated by Wine Enthusiast Magazine as one of the top wine
stores in New York City. The store features hundreds of New York
wines from over 50 different wineries throughout the State, and
has been instrumental in enhancing the image and distribution
of New York wines in the world's most competitive market."
