Ingredients
12 fresh quail, cleaned, washed and quartered
1 cup Vya Dry Vermouth or an aromatic dry substitute
Preparation
Place the quail close together in a glass or ceramic container and cover with the vermouth. Marinate the quail for two hours, maximum.

Merry's good friend Andy Quady produces Vya, a special vermouth infused with botanical herbs. Vya gives the quail a unique, heady herbal flavor. If you can't find Vya in a store near you, we recommend a fragrant vermouth as an alternative. To learn more about Vya and Andy Quady's wonderful dessert wines, contact Quady Winery: (800) 733-8068.

During the Holidays, Ken and Merry hosted an open house for the winery "family." They served the following menu, along with a few bottles of sparkling wine and 1997 Merry Edwards Olivet Lane Pinot Noir. The menu, designed to be "finger food," played off the wines beautifully.
