Food and Wine Magazine included Hermit Woods Winery on their 2017 wine guide of "500 Best Wineries in America". Old world character meets new world fruit-each of our award-winning and handcrafted wines is made from a unique combination of locally sourced fruit, honey, and flowers, in some cases wild-foraged.
Our process is devotedly hands-on from vine to bottle, using old-world techniques with the highest level of care and integrity. The result is a wine with rich, complex flavors. All of our wines are vegan (with the exception of honey wines), gluten-free, raw, and mostly organic to Best Management Practices-and an excellent accompaniment to a variety of foods.

Hidden gem in the middle of quaint Meredith, NH Main Street! Don't be fooled by the unassuming exterior. Inside is filled with a great winery experience, a beautiful interior (don't miss the second floor gallery space), friendly and knowledgeable staff, delicious wines and food! A great way to spend an afternoon. Thanks Randy!

Our first visit this week to Hermit Woods won't be our last. While we didn't have any wine or cider, our lunch was choice was the Turkey Bacon Jam Panini, and it was delicious! Deep River Black Pepper Chips served on the side were an unexpected treat. We ate outside (our preference) and the only seating offered there was on high stool at high tops or an outdoor counter. It's fine for most, but our preference would have been a low table and chairs.

Absolutely love this winery and I've been a wine club member for years. The owners are very kind and the wine club Christmas party is always a blast! The only thing to watch out for is any wines with honeyberries in them. I tried the standalone honeyberry wine a few years back and it had an odd sulfur smell to it and a strange savory after taste. It was on clearance shortly after I tried it. At my last tasting the lady behind the bar told me that it was very hit or miss with customers, so imagine my disappointment to receive a similar wine (The Northern Berry Red I think?) in my recent wine club

My husband and I split a sandwich and a salad and each got a wine flight and we were so delighted! The food there is spectacular - definitely don't just stop in for the winery.
The wine is all fruit wine, so it's not your average wine, but it's excellent. They also offer local beers and cider as well. Everything we tried was great - we ended up leaving with 6 bottles and some cans of wine.
Bonus: They're very dog friendly!
