About Sunset Hill Vineyard
Sunset Hill pours small on Lyme's Elys Ferry Road: Donna and Jax run everything-outdoors weekend tastings in front of the barn, estate wines that surprise California-calibrated visitors plus a sangria with its own following, kids' scavenger hunt included.
Among the trail's smallest and friendliest stops, it turns passport-stamp visits into regulars. Lyme's pocket-sized gem.
