Tasting room, marketplace, and restaurant at the trail’s west end — convenient first stop coming from town.
Tasting room, marketplace and restaurant at the trail’s west end, which makes it the natural first stop coming out from town. Convenient is doing a lot of work in that sentence, but the property is genuinely pleasant and the kitchen is capable.

This page is an independent guide, not the winery. Hours, tasting fees and
reservation rules change season to season — and several rooms are
reservation-only on weekends. Check Avensole Winery’s own site or call before
building the day around it.
