I thought this was a great idea.
A customer came in the winery this weekend to buy wine to give "the gift of Haftield" baskets for Christmas this year.

What a brilliant Idea.  And I hope she doesn't mind that I'm borrowing and sharing her idea.dd

Did you know this wonderful little town has lots of great gift ideas?
You can find a directory here:

Add a special blend of tea from the teaguys

Give yourself a gift by skipping the crowded malls and give a truly unique gift this year.

Thanksgiving is this Thursday.
How did that happen?
Are you ready?
I sure am NOT!
But I do know what wine I'll be serving : )

And that reminds me.
We'll be open FRIDAY Saturday and Sunday this coming weekend 12 - 5 and if you're entertaining family and friends bring em around for a taste of some local wine.

Friday begins the offical holiday mad rush and if you're cutting back this year like most of us, check us out for some special, inexpensive locally produced gifts.  Besides wine, we have homemade jam, wine soap and pottery made by local potter Malea Rhodes.

Wine inventory is dwindling and we're not anticipating being open too many more weekends but you can always call or email about availability.

Happy Thanksgiving!

We have 2 cases left of our new red wine Frontenac. 

1. Cayuga White
2. Frontenac Red
3. & 4.Dry and Semi Sweet Apple
5. Raspberry
6. Blueberry
7. Cranberry 

The Frontenac red being the most limited.

A quick note to let you know that we are down  to the final case of Cranberry Wine for the season.

If you’d like some and can’t get to the winery quick just send us an email or call and we’d be happy to put it aside for you.

I confess that I generally like a semi dry or semi sweet wine over dry. When we closed the winery for the season last year, all we had left were a few cases of our dry apple wine.  I have found that this recipe is perfect for adding a slightly sweeter taste to our dry apple wine and also makes a bottle of wine go farther if you’re hosting a party.

If you have a chance to stop by and taste our wines, don’t forget to give our sparkler a try too. 

It’s a great addition to any fall/holiday get together. 

Ever wonder what 300 lbs of cranberries looks like?

25 pound boxes X 12 boxes = more cranberries than we have room for!

But aren’t they beautiful?  Wonderful, organically grown cranberries from Cranberry Hill in Plymouth Mass.

Winery update:  The Frontenac Red and cranberry wine are getting limited.  If you'd like some but can't get to the winery right away, let us know and we'd be happy to put some aside for you.

2 cuties sitting on pumpkins they just bought while their parents sampled the wines.

So if you’re in the area, stop in for some pumpkins or squash, a taste of home made jam or a sampling of wine.  It’s a beautiful weekend for a drive through Hatfield.

Hope to see you here!

Thank you! Thank you to all who came to our opening weekend. 

Here's a pic of the inside of the winery before we opened.  All ready for the big weekend.

Thanks too for all the wonderful comments about our new addition, Frontenac red wine.  We're already down to the few remaining cases of it.

This wine connoisseur gives it his stamp of approval. 

 We're open every weekend until the end of December (or until we run out of wine, whichever comes first) so please stop in for free wine tastings.

Opening Saturday October 4^th 12 – 5.  Starting this Saturday we will be open weekends starting at noon until 5 pm.

We’re planning a few special things for this weekend so if you’re in the neighborhood, we’d love to have you stop in and try our latest vintage.

Come sample the chocolate fountain as we celebrate our new Red Frontenac wine made only from our own red grapes. We only have a very limited amount of this variety this year so if you like dry red wine, be sure to stop by sooner rather than later to try some.
