Wine in Summer — 06/01/23

After a multi-year hiatus, New Hampshire Wine Week is back — now, in summer. Its core event, the rebranded New England Wine Spectacular, returns on Thursday, June 15, and Matt Ingersoll has all of the details in this week’s cover story, which includes a couple of interviews with participating wine experts.

Also on the cover The Nashua Symphony Orchestra will perform a piece written by music director David Feltner amid the height of the pandemic — Katelyn Sahagian chats with him about it (page 14). The New Hampshire Herbal Network’s annual Herb & Garden Day, packed with workshops, raffle prizes and local vendors, returns on Saturday, June 3 (page 25). Discover local eats, brews and more during the Taste of Downtown Nashua, returning to the Gate City on Wednesday, June 7 (page 24).
