Ben Feder Passed Away

Tuesday, September 29th, 2009 | Hudson Valley, New York, Wine News

I am sad to hear of the passing Clinton Vineyards’ Ben Feder, who died last Thursday. Clinton was one of the first Hudson Valley wineries I visited several years ago, and is just minutes from my home. I always enjoyed talking to Ben when I’d see him at a wine event or at the Rhinebeck Farmer’s Market. He was quite a character and a memorable personality.

Ben and his wife Phyllis established Clinton Vineyards in 1977. I have not heard anything about what will happen to the vineyard. My sincerest condolences to his family.
