Coastal Winegrowers of Southeastern New EnglandThe viticultural appellation, called the Southeastern New England Wine Growing Appellation, stretches from Cape Cod and the Islands through the South Coast of Massachusetts and Coastal Rhode Island and Coastal Connecticut. The common thread through this wine region is the close proximity to the Atlantic Ocean and the Southeast facing coastline which captures the warm Gulf Stream waters in the summer and fall. It is a cool grape growing region with most wineries here concentrating on white wines and sparkling wines. There are 9 wineries that can be visited and are part of The Coastal Wine Trail Passport. The 2013 program runs from February 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013.
