Our Other Offerings
During our festive Christmas tree season at the farm, the winery tasting room is decked with Christmas trees, ornaments, and one-of-a-kind gifts. The farm has been inviting guests to harvest their own Christmas tree for 70 years, and it a wonderful focal point for all the farm and winery's activities.
Our Tasting Room Mission: Educate and Celebrate!
In a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere, we help guests discover how to taste wines and to appreciate Connecticut wines. Our talented staff leads guests through a guided tasting so they can explore for themselves what they like best about wine. The focus of our wine tastings and our tasting room experience is education.
