The Wine Trails of Rhode Islandby Jim HofmanIf you've never been to Rhode Island, I want to be the first to encourage you to visit. Simply put, Rhode Island is unforgettable. Besides being known as the first colony to declare independence from Britain, the state is often nicknamed "America's First Resort." But tiny Rhode Island is much more. Its climate is tempered by the Atlantic Ocean, and there are miles upon miles of breathtaking beaches (and views) to savor and enjoy. Further inland, Rhode Island offers the cosmopolitan and historic city of Providence and a surprising array of agricultural activity, punctuated by a small, but thriving wine industry. If this surprises you, you're not alone... it was a suprise to me, too! But grapes grow in plentiful numbers here, and winemakers have adapted their art in accordance with what nature provides. Providence: A City Of Great Neighborhoods - One of the delights of Providence, the capitol of Rhode Island with a population of 175,000, is that it is a very walkable city. What better way to explore a city than to feel its pulse on foot? Among Providence's neighborhood destinations are Wayland Square, Federal Hill, and, of course, the downtown area. Federal Hill, long known for its "Little Italy" area, teems with dining opportunities. If you're a fan of independent stores and shops, don't miss Wayland Square on the city's east side. And let's not forget downtown Providence, a destination for dining, nightlife, and historic architecture. Rhode Island's Wineries Beckon - Since Rhode Island is such a small state, you can visit all five wineries in two days. But in rushing around, you'd miss the simple pleasure of discovering all that Rhode Island has to offer. There is a simple joy in just driving into the lush, green, and rural area that awaits one outside of Providence.
South of Providence in Newport County, you'll find three wineries: Greenvale Vineyards, Newport Vineyards and Winery, and Sakonnet Vineyards. Each location is a scenic gem! In addition to the gorgeous scenery, each winery hosts numerous seasonal events, perfect for relaxing and enjoying crisp, delightful Rhode Island vintages. Leaving the Newport area and heading toward Rhode Island's southwestern coastal area, you'll find Langworthy Farm Winery in Westerly, just a stone's throw from the Atlantic Ocean. Langworthy is situated on a family farm with an 1875 Victorian farmhouse that welcomes overnight guests. The grounds feature a stunning Norway maple tree that is reportedly the largest of its kind in the state. You'll find wine for any palate at these charming Rhode Island wineries, from deep complex reds to light and crisp Rieslings. So, here's to little Rhode Island... small in size, but very very big in wine, taste, and scenery! Once you visit, you'll never forget. Cheers!
