Favorite Wine: Ballet of Angels

Very cute winery. Great atmosphere inside and out. Staff leaves a bit to be desired. Very "Upity" and not very knowledgeable. The staff almost didn't fit with the winery. Winery was very country, staff acted like they were running a 5 star restaurant that entertains the rich and famous. Was not terribly impressed. Only really liked a couple of wines. Would go back, but primarily for the atmosphere.

A fabulous vineyard. Here you need to make reservations to have some of their fabulous food to pair with their wonderful wines.

Favorite Wine: enjoyed them all, good value

Sharpe Hill is an absolutely lovely winery to visit. The staff was very friendly and helpful, the outdoor tasting was highly enjoyable in a very serene setting. We enjoyed our visit and the wine so much we stayed for the gourmet dinner. This is where I will bring family and friends when they visit. The ambiance was superb!

Favorite Wine: Ballet of Angels - unique and sweet wine

My husband and I took a long awaited visit to this vineyard over the weekend. I am a big fan of the Ballet of Angels wine, and was looking forward to doing their tasting. Our first impression was poor. We called twice to get directions, and were hung up on. When we did find the location, we enjoyed the outside -- as it is rustic and beautiful. The winetasting area/room, was very small, although nicely decorated. The staff were not knowledgeable and we had to ask for each wine on our 5 list. We were not explained what the grapes were, or told history about them. Instead were told "everything is on the list". It was very low class service, with a "drop" of wine in each glass -- one sip to each tasting....RITZ crackers were served, after asking for crackers to clean our palet. I thought that was tacky. We were very disappointed. We have visited several vineyards on the Ct Wine Trail, and this one is at the bottom of our list, especially due to customer service.
