    Please share with us your experience at a local winery. Did you go for a festival at the winery? Did you go with a tour group? Did you go for a celebration? Did you follow the Coastal Wine Trail or the Connecticut Wine Trail? How did you find out about the winery you went to visit, online, brochure, advertisement, family or friend, tour?

    To celebrate Spring we took 3 wine friends to 3 wineries. You can find their comments on our site. We had a great day traveling the back roads of Connecticut and Rhode Island. We started our day at Jonathan Edwards Winery in North Stonington, Connecticut http://www.jedwardswinery.com I think we were the first ones there and for a short time had a private tasting. It did not take long before the tasting bar started to fill up. They have several weddings planned there this season…it is certainly a beautiful place for any reception.

    We then traveled to Maugle Sierra Vineyards in Ledyard, Connecticut
    http://www.mauglesierravineyards.com This is a very special winery and we were greeted in the tasting room by the owner and wine maker Paul. He guided us through an informative tasting with the magic of the Hershey Kiss. You have to see this tasting room to believe it, and we hope you have the same aaaahhhh response we all had when we opened the doors.

    Noah’s in Stonington was our choice for lunch and it was delightful. Stonington is a beautiful coastal town in Connecticut, reminding us of Nantucket and Marthas Vineyard.

    Westerly, Rhode Island is a short ride from Stonington, traveling along the coast and is home to Langworthy Farm Winery and Bed and Breakfast. Our timing was just right, as we met the owners and winemaker…again an insightful visit learning the wine making process, and listening to their story.

    As I have said before every glass of wine tells a story as does each bottle and winery. The wineries of New England each have fascinating stories to share…we invite you to go and listen to their stories and enjoy the wine while you are there! We did!
