This is the second installation of Passport to Connecticut Wineries, or Sophie and Cecelia’s adventures tasting  their way through Connecticut wineries!

On Sunday, July 12, 2009 we visited Land of Nod Winery in East Canaan, CT. Traveling to East Canaan (from Newtown) is a scenic trip up Rt. 7, stopping just short of Massachusetts.

Land of Nod is one of the few wineries that doesn’t charge for their tastings.

The wines:

• The Bianca was nice.
• The Pinot Noir was just okay, though Cecelia really liked it.
• The Blueberry-Raspberry wine was too sweet for my palate.
• I didn’t taste much chocolate in the Raspberry Chocolate, although the wine flavor was enhanced after a few chocolate covered espresso beans.
