About Joseph Preli Farm & Winery
Preli hides down a South Glastonbury dirt drive: John's heirloom farm ferments the improbable, tomato wines that divide tables, ginger cider that unites them, beside grape bottlings, all poured daily to a soundtrack of farm-dog Daisy working the tables.
Heirloom produce, organic eggs and grape leaves for the dolma-makers share the stand; sixteen-dollar flights keep it neighborly. Glastonbury's happiest secret.
