We might not yet be to the worldwide fame of Napa Valley, but the wine industry in the Nutmeg State is booming. If you’re looking to try out some of the products from the best wineries in Connecticut, it’s time to take a trip down the Connecticut Wine Trail. There are currently more than 50 wineries in the state, and even if you’re not a big wine fan, I find visiting vineyards to be a fun day out in nature. The tours are often quite informative, and, of course, the tastings are a big plus! Let’s take a peek at some of our favorite wineries on the Connecticut Wine Trail:

The Connecticut Wine Trail features tons of great wineries spread all through the state.
