4 Best Wineries near Guilford

“We came for Construction Tyme and had so much fun. The Construction Tyme tickets include the rest of the summer kid’s activities. The excavator and construction equipment were obviously a big hit, and the Corn Crib was a surprising close second. Who knew that sitting in dried corn kernels would be such a hit with kids, but it was!“

“Disclaimer: This review contains sarcasm, wine-fueled commentary, and dad-joke-level humor. Proceed accordingly. So my wife, a couple of friends, and I have been slowly working our way through the CT Wine Trail — because what better way to justify day drinking than by calling it a “trail,” right? Anyway, we decided to swing by Rose Vineyard, assuming they were on the wine trail. Spoiler alert: they aren’t. That’s on me — clearly, my elite Googling skills failed me. But let’s not dwell on that. What is important is that the experience was fantastic. We each went for the three-glass wine tasting — I picked a trio of reds, my buddy went rogue with a mix, and the ladies opted for the whites. All of it? Excellent. Seriously, props to whoever’s behind the barrels. But the real MVP? Courtney, our server. Super personable, fun, and completely down to roll with our nonsense. We even bonded over the classic “people getting your name wrong” struggle. Apparently she gets “Britney” a lot. (No shade, Britney, but come on.) We then spiraled into a fun chat about names being spelled wrong — like “Kourtney” with a K. You know, deep philosophical stuff. We also grabbed the charcuterie board — a fancy word for “awesome tray of meats, breads, and spreads.” And yes, I know that’s literally what charcuterie means. I’ve had wine. Let me have this. The tasting room and bar? Beautifully designed. Open layout, good vibe, ideal for small weddings or group events — or, let’s be honest, just some quality day drinking with friends. One tiny note (and the thing that actually kicked off our convo with Kourtney/Britney/Courtney): your website was throwing a 404 error. Might wanna give that a refresh before someone else tries to wine-map their way to you and ends up in a cornfield. All in all, 10/10 would wine again. My Uber just pulled up, so I’ll wrap this up. Thanks for a great evening, and see you soon — hopefully still not on the Wine Trail, so we can keep pretending we discovered a hidden gem. Cheers!“

“Came here on a Wednesday evening with a group of 8. We had a fantastic time! Wine and food was delicious and the service from Garrett was AMAZING! Please give that man a raise 😁 The vineyard was so beautiful and a great backdrop for photos. Will return for future events or just dinner.“
