I left with their '22 Cab Franc Rsrv (still laid down), '22 Red Hunt Country (dark, soft tannins, dark red fruit) and Special Reserve Brut. They have a nice gift area with wine related items. I brought home the Millbrook Hunt Country Red candle that has a pleasant mint aroma. I'm writing this review now because I opened their Special Reserve Brut on 5/16 w friends and was blown away by the mousse (tiny soft bubbles) that was an absolute delight! When I return this summer I will be bringing a few bottles home.

On the other hand this review is for the grounds and buildings. There are only 2 designated handicap parking spots, near the entrance. To use the restrooms you'll need to use stairs.

We sat outside with a gorgeous view of the fall foliage and vineyard, which made the experience even more special. I did the wine tasting along with a cheese plate, and both were delicious. The service was a little variable, but that may have just been the day. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and such a beautiful place to visit. We enjoyed it so much that we left with four bottles of wine! Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area.

Everyone on the property was so friendly and I love going to places that feel welcoming. As for their food I thought it was okay. The portion sizes of most of their meals were small bites. I personally wasn't blown away by the food I ate. Overall the location is beautiful and the service was excellent.

Per my last sentence, be sure you go online and KNOW what you want to do and what you want to spend! You can 'easily' spend a lot of money here - on the other hand, if you know what you're doing you can have a nice afternoon/evening here at a reasonable cost. Again, go on the website beforehand. I can't stress this enough! Their wine is expensive as are 'some' seating options so be advised. We were actually there 3x's this spring/summer. Went to a big party under one of their large structured tents, then we had a small party under an umbrella table, and then went up again this past weekend and just sat in chairs and caught a sunset and amazing dinner from Greek Cave food truck. The food trucks (always 2) vary, but they list whose there on the website along with any entertainment (extra cost). Very annoying is the fact you can't call there! You have to text or email and their response(s) are NOT always timely! Unprofessional that you can't call and speak to someone.

The property is huge and there's so much open space, so it was nice to just wander around and enjoy the scenery. We also got some cider and popcorn and of course had to get the apple cider donuts. We grabbed a chocolate chip cookie from the pie truck too and that was really good. I love that they have different food and dessert pop-ups throughout the season, so there's always something else to try. The staff we interacted with were really nice and everything was easy. Such a pretty spot for a fall day and I'd definitely come back for apple picking again!

We went early this year so they only had 3 different types of apples available for picking. We picked honey crisp, gala and Jonah Mac. They had a beautiful sunflower farm. The property is so pretty and I loved how they had a fire pit with the Adirondack chairs around it. There was a tap room which had all different types of beverages and ciders. Couple of food trucks and their donuts were delicious! Highly recommend checking out this farm.

9/14/25: Love coming to Fjord Vineyards!…read more We came for their Oyster Party Weekend. Marilyn greeted us when we checked in. She escorted us over to a table with a marvelous view of the vineyards. Maria was our wonderful and charming server. She came over with a complementary glass of their wonderful rosé wine. I'm not a rosé drinker, but it was delicious. We enjoyed a wonderful flight of wines. Our favorite was their '23 Double Fall Line $32. It has a marvelous smooth blend of Cab Franc, Merlot and Blaufränkisch (Austrian Blue) Grapes. Two bottles came home later. : ) Of course, we had to indulge in some wonderful lobster rolls. Each lobster roll was $23, plus for an extra $9 you get a nice dollop of caviar to top it off ! The lobster was from a company called Oyster Party in the NY area. I think the lobster rolls were some of the best I ever had. Just a couple of notes: - It appears the hill leading up to the vineyard was recently paved. Previously, it was extremely uneven. - Be sure to make reservations online. - Parking is available within steps of entering the vineyard. Can't wait to return! : D

White Silo Farm & Winery is a rustic farm, vineyard & winery that opened in Sherman, Connecticut in…read more2000. It was opened by the Gorman family, including Ralph and his son Eric. Ralph has a degree in engineering and had previously worked as an engineer, a chemistry teacher, a physics professor and a consultant. He grew bored, wanted to try something different, so in 1985 he decided to purchase a 17-acre parcel of farmland in Sherman that had previously been part of Upland Pastures dairy farm. The Gorman family intended to continue the farming tradition and preserve the land for generations to come. They planted crops of raspberries, blackberries and rhubarb. The circa 1780 dairy barn and silo were completely renovated and converted into a tasting room and production area. By 2000, the winery opened to the public. The initial wines made available were fruit (non-grape) wines, crafted from their own farm-grown fruit. The Gorman family planted their first grape vineyard in 2010 and additional grapevines were planted in 2016. My wife and I visited White Silo this past weekend. To celebrate my wife's birthday, I took her for a drive in Western Connecticut to see the fall foliage and explore some wineries. This was our first visit to White Silo and it was our first stop of the day. The property was lovely and the interior of the barn was very charming. We decided to order some wine flights so we could sample several of the winery's offerings. Between the two of us, we sampled their "Upland Pastures White", "Rhubarb", "Sparkling Red Raspberry", "Upland Pastures Red", "Farm White", "Upland Pastures Rosé", "Blackberry Sangria", and their "Apple Cider". We decided to purchase bottles of our two favorites (the "Sparkling Red Raspberry" and the "Apple Cider") to take home. White Silo also offers light food options as well. We shared the winery's "Hummus Plate" and "Gourmet Boxed Lunch" while we enjoyed our flights. The boxed lunch, which changes seasonally, included a turkey sandwich made with arugula and White Silo mustard, quinoa salad, a mini cheese plate, mixed nuts, and a chocolate turtle bar. It was the perfect amount of food to enjoy with our wine samples. Overall we had a very relaxing experience at White Silo, complete with a live musician. We highly recommend White Silo to visitors traveling through this quiet part of the state. We hope to be back!
