| Description | Established in 1998, Priam Vineyards is located in the historic town of Colchester, just minutes from Mohegan Sun Casino, Moodus Resort area, The Goodspeed Opera House, and a number of state parks.
The 40 acre vineyard has 23 acres of grapes in production, with a breathtaking 35 mile view of the New England countryside. We benefit from the unique microclimate of the hills of New London County, just 15 miles from Long Island Sound, where we grow classic European varietals: Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Gewurztraminer, Chardonnay, Riesling, and Muscat as well as American hybrids: Cauga and St. Croix. Our international award winning wines are produced in the style of Northern France and Germany.
Visit Priam Vineyards and treat yourself to a tasting and a magnificent view of New England. Take in the seasonally beautiful surroundings of the area and enjoy antiquing, hiking, fishing, golf and vacationing. |

Reviews for Priam Vineyards
|
| * | I appreciate the opportunity to warn others about this winery. I felt like this winery was an embarrassment to the overall delightful experience that is the Connecticut Wine Trail. Firstly, the wine attendants had an air of arrogance, with overwhelming attitudes of superiority; however, lacking in the basic intelligence needed to answer simple questions about the wines. While they charge $8.50 to taste and get a glass, they only offer 4 wines, and then tasters must pay another $8 to taste the other four. I understand the proprietors need to cover the cost of pouring tastes, but these charges should be put toward the purchase of wine, not to overcharge the patrons. Overall, I was insulted, underwhelmed by mediocre wines, and left after purchasing only one bottle. To visit and not buy would go against my practice of supporting small businesses, and would have been as crass and condescending as the employees themselves. This was the only Connecticut winery I left with a bad taste in my mouth. | Young couple | 12-09-07 |
