Welcoming Connecticut’s Newest Winery

I seem to be slipping – either that or am just WAY too busy at work – but it was actually Gretchen who let me know that a new Connecticut Winery has hit the scene and are hosting a weekend-long Grand Opening Celebration this weekend!

Located in Preston, Connecticut on the shores of Lake Amos (and a scant 3 miles from the Foxwoods Casino and Resort), the Dalice Elizabeth Winery opened their doors to the public yesterday at the “Become a Part of the Family” Grand Opening Celebration.   The celebrations continue throughout the weekend: 11-8 on Saturday and 11-5 on Sunday.

In addition to their wines, Dalice Elizabeth also has a wine school where participants can learn the art of wine-making, and offers Italian Cooking classes for groups of six or more.

I wasn’t able to make the trek to Preston for the Friday evening ribbon-cutting ceremony, but will definitely be heading down this afternoon.

Welcome Dalice Elizabeth to Connecticut – and thanks Gretchen for passing along the news.
