Pretty Lo Ki Nordic Moon Meadery, Ellington April 2019 What you're reading right now is a placeholder of sorts. As I write this in August 2019, Nordic Moon's tasting room is not yet open.

Arrowhead Acres Winery
A Chief New Winery Arrowhead Acres Winery, Franklin July 2019 During my five year hiatus from checking out Connecticut wineries, a bunch of new ones opened.

Joseph Preli Farm & Winery
You Say Tomato, I Say Don’t Make Tomato Wine Joseph Preli Farm & Winery, Glastonbury July 2019 Ugh. Here we are again. In that awkward place.

Preston Ridge Winery
Stompton, Smashton, Preston Preston Ridge Winery, Preston September 28, 2014 We had tried to visit this winery a few times since it opened only to be stymied by a wedding.

Walker Road Vineyards
DYNO-MITE! Walker Road Vineyards, Woodbury June 28, 2013 Connecticut’s wineries all have much in common, from the wines served to the tasting room set-ups to the countrified air about them.

Arrigoni Winery
Don't They Know How Much People Hate the Arrigoni Bridge? Arrigoni Winery, Portland October 20, 2012 I forget exactly when I learned of Arrigoni, Connecticut's newest winery (as of late 2012), but I remember thinking, really? A winery in Portland? Hm.
