About The Vineyard at Hillyland
The Vineyard at Hillyland has earned its reputation as one of the region's most genuine wine experiences in Windham County / Quiet Corner — Connecticut's most talked-about wine destination. Set in Connecticut, the winery combines estate-grown character with a visitor experience that makes wine approachable for newcomers and satisfying for serious tasters.
The wines lean on estate Cabernet Franc and cool-climate whites — a smart choice given Connecticut's cool New England growing season. In the glass, these varietals deliver approachable character that rewards repeat visits and careful attention, the kind of quality that has helped Connecticut wineries build a following well beyond state lines.
Visiting The Vineyard at Hillyland means spending time with a team that genuinely cares about what's in the bottle and who's tasting it. The tasting room offers intimate small-group tastings and a well-stocked wine shop, and the property itself — a purpose-built tasting room adjacent to estate vines — provides the setting that makes a wine-country day trip feel worthwhile.
