Our viticultural appellation, called the Southeastern New England Wine Growing Appellation, stretches from Cape Cod and the Islands through the South Coast of Massachusetts and Coastal Rhode Island and Coastal Connecticut.
The common thread through this wine region is our close proximity to the Atlantic Ocean and our Southeast facing coastline which captures the warm Gulf Stream waters in the summer and fall. We are a cool grape growing region with most wineries here concentrating on white wines and sparkling wines.
The Coastal Wine Trail winds through the heart of the Southeastern New England Wine Growing Appellation. These 7 wineries can be visited in 2 to 3 days.
