Truro Vineyards

So , another wonderful place to visit on the Cape is Truro Vineyards. It's about another half hour east of Brewster on route 6, on the way to Provincetown. (http://www.trurovineyardsofcapecod.com/‎)

You must participate in this if you visit and purchase the glass for $8, I think. A fun keepsake. I went recently with my hubby to sit on the beautiful grounds and enjoy a glass of wine. We sat in a double Adirondack chair and soaked in the sun and scenery. There is a lovely gift shop with all kinds of wine goodies and wine to purchase. Truro Vineyards is a family business. The property was built in 1813 and served as a farm for many years. From Memorial Day through Columbus Day you can take guided tours through the vineyard and the winery. It is fascinating to hear about the process of growing, harvesting, and making the wine.

My friends like to participate in the wine stomping in the fall. I have missed the last few years, but plan to make it this year!
