Delicious no sulfite Sangria made my day. Nice property, good selection l, especially if your tastes run to sweeter wines.

Love!!!!! Only reason I am sad we left CT is for this winery. The amazing owners and their wine. I get people to bring me bottle every chance I get. Enjoying some Orange Vidal right now!

Excellent wine and service. They made the sitting room very inviting and romantic. More people need to come out and enjoy their beautiful wines. Social distancing tables, they have the space for it. Judy and Jason made us very comfortable. It's our favorite vineyard in Connecticut !

The low sulfates in the wine make it AMAZING. Two of the wines were dry enough for my taste - and they were all smooth and had no bite (like you experience at most wineries) The wine was honestly delicious. I never write recommendations. But in this case, I can’t NOT write one.

I live in New York and I have to say their wine is out of this world. Love the variety. Drive from NY just to see the family run business. I wish they could ship a case to me.

A great way to spend a pleasant afternoon. Sipping wine and enjoying a Sangria Slushy as we munched on veggies, cheese and crackers from home. Loved our table right in the vineyard that provided beauty and privacy. Highly recommend!

Staff I spoke with were friendly and informative. Atmosphere was very pretty setting up tables in the rows of vines. Wines have little preservatives. Even the dry wines are on the sweeter side.

Great family that runs the place. Unique tasting wines. Unfortunately they have lessened the alcohol content of the white wines resulting a much lighter tasting wine with less body. I guess they were feeling pressured by the higher ups. So we ended up purchasing the reds instead of our usual whites. Namaste!

This is one of the best wineries I’ve been to. Wine was excellent. The setting is gorgeous, plenty of tables to sit at indoor and output. We had the owner as our wine tasting expert, she is amazing. Definitely going back soon.

I love this place. The staff/owners are very welcoming and know their product very well. The location is very inviting. I've been there a few times after learning of it. I would suggest it to anyone that enjoys their wines after dinner. They have a good variety that would be great for dessert. I encourage anyone that is looking for what I described to give it a try. I wouldn't steer you wrong.

DRY DRINKERS BEWARE!! My husband and I stopped here on our way home from a trip. We are typically dry drinkers, but enjoy a sweet wine once in a while. However, if I wanted a pack of juicy juice, it would have been cheaper at the grocery store. We tried 9 wines... all which tasted like a sugar syrup. We left nauseas and with acid reflux. We would NOT recommend this winery.

Very nice family run Winery, who are all so pleasant and helpful. My wife and I enjoyed the Chardonel and the Black Bear Port (had to a buy a bottle of each). Both were outstanding! Plan on staying after the tasting and getting a glass of the Sangria, it is only available by the glass, so get a glass sit back and enjoy! This Vineyard is a MUST!

We went to this winery for the first time today. Although we technically came after the last wine tasting, they were gracious enough to serve us. The staff was friendly, engaging, and answered all of our questions. And the best part of all, their wines were absolutely delicious. We visited 3 other wineries in the area today and this was our favorite by far. I've never experienced a tasting where I truly enjoyed every single wine on the menu. We left with a case of their delicious wines. We will be back with friends!
