If you are looking for a great place to enjoy beautiful weather in a huge open space, Lost Acres is the place to go! We visited on a Saturday and enjoyed the live music with a delicious wine. We were lucky enough to see the horses visit the farm next to the vineyard. There was also a local food truck but we came too late that to try them out. What we ordered: Riesling ($19.99) Antipasto plate ($16.00). Due to COVID, you must buy by bottle. The wine was fruity and fresh, and the description on the menu was spot on. The staff however wasn't too helpful about the menu. The plate came with a decent size to enjoy with 3-4 people. Parking can be tricky especially when you visit later in the day. If you are coming as a large group, I also recommend bringing your own chairs and tables.
Really incredible experience here! A group of friends and I stopped by here and was really surprised by how serene and peaceful the location was. I had never really been to Granby before so this was super cool. The woman behind the counter recommended an absolutely incredible bottle of wine that I'm still dreaming of to this day. There were local vendors in the winery which was very neat. Overall a super fun experience and I'm definitely be back soon!
Lost Acres Vineyard is a favorite stop along the CT wine trail. Their wines are exceptional. It's easy to spend a day with family or friends. Service is quick and friendly. Lost Acres is located on a quaint country road. In season they have outdoor music and food trucks.
My friend and I have been trying to coordinate a visit here for weeks and we finally made it and I'm sure glad that we did. For $7 we sampled 5 different wines of our choice and were given a complimentary glass. The staff was knowledgeable and friendly and explained the CT Winery Passport to us. We sat on the deck and enjoyed a hummus platter in a beautiful setting. Two thumbs up.
Love this place!!! Dog friendly is a huge plus!! Love that you can just picnic out on the grass. I've loved every wine I've had while visiting, can't complain
Like many vineyards I've been reviewing lately, I haven't been here in a few years, and I was shocked to see how much it's grown. I remember a medium sized tasting room in the middle of nowhere, today I found it to be popping! There was live music, people outdoors enjoying the wine and ambiance, and lots of people inside. It's very clean and well manicured, and there is even horse related art work tucked into the property (perhaps to compliment the living horses in the stables next door). It has blossomed into a picturesque retreat to spend a weekend afternoon!
It isn't easy to find a good winery in the North East but HERE IT IS! Fantastic ambiance with lots of outdoor seating, delicious charcuterie boards, large indoor seating area, and fantastic staff. Rachel gave us a thorough and informative tasting and helped us with recommendations. The wine is fantastic!! We found that the whites were really something special while the reds were a little more basic. Everything is reasonably priced and you even get to keep a glass with your wine tasting! 10/10 would recommend hanging out here with a couple bottles of wine and some good friends.
Six bucks for 5 wines and a souvenir glass. Pretty sweet! We've been to a few vineyards, and this one had a bit of a different spin to their wine tasting. They had nine wines available today (4 whites, 3 reds, 2 fruit) and you could choose any five for your tasting. I had a Wedge White, a Riesling, a Rock Wall Red, an Old Orchard Apple, and a Salmon Brook Rose. I liked all of them but enjoyed the Wedge White (six grape varieties with a taste of citrus) and the Riesling (apple and pear) the best. Chocolates were served with the Rose ("sip, bite, sip"), which was a nice touch. Different kinds of cheese and fruit platters are sold if you want to have a bottle, a snack, and relax. The tasting room and lounge are gorgeous with all kinds of artwork on display and for sale. The Vineyard was full of activity today as they were gearing up for a big Farm to Table dinner tonight. The people at the Vineyard were very nice, the grounds are gorgeous ( I saw a few cool sculptures out there), the wines are enjoyable, and the whole afternoon was a pleasure. Yay, I'm a fan!
Really stellar vineyard. Lost Acres has some of the best white wine I've had in this fair state. I got to do a tasting with Kevin on a Friday evening. He was pretty chill and generous with his pours. I love the tree aesthetic throughout the vineyard, including their logo and cork-made tree above the shelves of wine. Sitting by the fire is such a cozy experience. You can even play chess or checkers on the coffee table. There are lots of spots to sit if you want to make it a more relaxing wine tasting experience. I would definitely go out of my way to visit again.
Nice little winery in Granby. Pretty location, you might even get to see some horses while you're walking in from the parking lot. On our last visit, we saw an extremely impressive cheese plate being delivered to another table. Next time! The only thing I might recommend is umbrellas or something for the patio. There is shade in the center but not on the sides of the patio, and it gets fairly hot out there in the late afternoon sun!
Wine tasting at Lost Acres Winery is like visiting a secret winery in the woods. As you drive in the trees open up to this beautiful vineyard and horse farm. You walk into the winery and are greeted by a friendly face behind the wine bar. When you look around the room you feel like you are transported to a cottage in the woods. The fireplace in the tasting room is so inviting and the art on the walls is created by local artisans in the area. A great feel for a wine tasting. Wine tastings are $7 and include your choice of 5 wines & a complimentary tasting glass. You can choose from a wine glass with a stem or a stemless wine glass, which I thought was pretty neat. Not many wineries offer that! The tasting itself was great. Our tasting room representative was very informative and inviting. We purchased a bottle and took it outside on the deck that over looked the beautiful vineyard scenery. Needless to say it was wonderfully relaxing afternoon. My favorites wines from our tasting were the Old Orchard Apple which was like autumn in a glass! Delicious notes of apple, spice, and everything nice! The other standout was the Firehouse Red - spicy, peppery wine, with a hint of fruity flavor. We purchased a bottle of both to take home.
This place is great - It's truly hidden gem. Fantastic wine (we like the Wedge White and our friends the reds). What it's missing are crowds, loudness, and crazy high prices - I guess nobody is perfect:). The staff is great. Very attentive and hard working to keep the place looking good. In our recent visit, we also experienced their outstanding customer service. There is one other thing - art and events. They often have work of local artists on display - paintings, sculptures, glassware, jewelry, etc. This is a great way to support the artists and it's enjoyable to walk around to view all the artwork. We have also seen Yoga being done on the grounds and there are many events, including an upcoming comedy show. Hope this place never changes!
On a cold and windy early fall day, we stopped in for a tasting. We thoroughly enjoyed it! The tasting room is well set up and there are many tables outside for sitting and enjoying a bottle of wine in finer weather than we had. The wines were enjoyable and on the higher side of what one expects at Connecticut wineries.

The best quiche I ever had on my first visit a few months ago. Equally as good on my second. I'm having something different today. Bacon apple cheddar panini on their homemade rosemary focaccia. Superb as expected. And the homemade zucchini pickles are the best. I am having seconds. One thing I love is that I get the iced tea/lemonade mix...it isn't sweet. Seconds on that too. I took a pint of pickles home. This was written, but not finished on Wednesday. I left my book here so this is Friday...I had to get my book. . I am having the jalapeño popper grilled cheese today. I had them add bacon. OMG. Keep in mind that this place is 45 minutes from my house. Worth every mile. Please don't let it become crazy popular but I have to give them props. This is one of my top five places. Period. And you are surrounded by an orchard!! read more

We had a great afternoon at the harvest festival at lost acres Vineyard just a beautiful day and an awesome band playing outside! So hard to pick which bottle to buy they're all awesome! And the food truck they had today prime meats from Avon was awesome! Abby our server was awesome with the wine tasting and very knowledgeable about all the wines! Highly recommend! read more
I literally stumbled upon this place while cutting between 189 and 179 in Granby while coming back from visiting my horse. Although I wasn't planning on an afternoon wine tasting, this place was busy enough on a Sunday afternoon that I figured I could slip in and check it out. This vineyard turns out to be a perfect mix of relaxed atmosphere with a beautiful backdrop. We ended up grabbing a bottle, ordering an antipasto plate, and kicking up our boots on the comfy wicker furniture on the deck. We were able to have such great conversations with fellow guests and owners that we ended up stayed for a few hours:). Some people brought their own picnic, others ordered plates of cheeses and antipasto. Guests milled about the lawns, visiting the grapes and nearby horses. I also liked that groups of all sorts were congregated there - college kids, first dates, family gatherings, quiet couples. So as long as they keep letting me in with my barn boots on, I might just become a regular :) read more
Last week, my girlfriend and I decided to stop by Lost Acres for a relaxing start to our weekend. Books in hand, we got there a little after lunch time. A little over a half hour away from Hartford, it's a scenic drive to North Granby. It's a small operation, and the tasting room is cozy. But overall, the space inside and out is charmingly New England. Between the 5 whites and 3 reds, we decided to try the Clemons Springs Dry. A white blend of locally-grown grapes, I enjoyed that it wasn't super dry or super sweet. I also like that you can bring your own picnic too, they offer cheese plates and antipasto plates as well if you don't feel like making anything. All Summer long and even into the Fall they also host events at the vineyard: live music, yoga classes, farmer's markets, art shows -- there is plenty going on. As with any CT Farm Winery, you can grab a passport here too if you want to participate in the wine trail. FYI - Open Friday+Saturday, 12-6pm Sunday, 12-5pm - Wine tastings are $7 and include your choice of 5 wines and a complimentary tasting glass - Bottles range from $13-18 read more
This winery gives you 5 tastes and you can keep the glass, which I am getting sick of. I would rather pay less and not keep the glass. I seriously donated over 20 glasses to Goodwill because of this. The wine was good for Connecticut wine. I liked the rose and merlot, and the people next to us did too. The property was farm cute and nice. The only negatives were the unpaved parking lot. I am happy I went. read more
Now that it's fall, I'm transitioning from Lost Acres' summery rose, convinced that there's nothing better for the cooler weather than their dry, crisp, tangy apple wine. Overall, this is one of my favorite CT vineyard. Beautiful location, fantastic cheese plates, cozy fireplace, and of course a series of good, solid wines. Lost Acres also has a good thing going when it comes to events - from yoga at the vineyard to art shows and live music, it makes for a lovely fall day trip! read more
I've been to many vineyards in Connecticut, and Lost Acres is by far my favorite. All of their wines are great, but my favorites are the Wedge White, Clemons Springs, and Firehouse Red. The atmosphere is casual, laid back and fun. You can relax on the patio with music or play cornhole with a group of friends. read more

A friend recommended that I stop here, and I'm so glad she did! We stopped in on a Friday afternoon and there were a few people out enjoying their wine on the porch. We chose to do the wine tasting at $6/pp. The $6 tasting fee includes your choice of any 5 wines on their list of 8, and you get to keep the glass. White grapes are grown at the vineyard, and the red grapes are brought in from California to make the wine. The apples for the Apple Wine are grown about a half mile up the road at Lost Acres Orchard. They do have a cheese plate or an antipasto to go with your wine, but that's about it for the menu. I was wishing they had a few more appetizer or lunch offerings, as I enjoy food with my wine. A tip for new visitors (or my next visit), stop at the Orchard up the road first and pick up some food (a sandwich or homemade quiche) to bring down to the vineyard. Enjoy some wine along with your food - and a beautiful view - on the deck overlooking the grounds read more

Came here as part of a friend's bachelorette. Despite living in CT for many years, this is only the third vineyard I have visited. I sampled five wines on the tasting list. For the whites, I enjoyed the Riesling and for the reds I liked the merlot. We had fun taking pictures outside. However, it started raining so we weren't able to enjoy the grounds as much as I would have liked to. I'm moving to the Bay area soon and look forward to visiting Napa and Sonoma. I am glad I could check out one more CT vineyard before moving. read more
