Nashoba Valley Winery
100 Wattaquadock Hill Road, Bolton MA 01740
For the second year in a row, I took my mom to brunch at J's Restaurant at Nashoba Valley Winery in Bolton, MA. Last year, we decided it needed to become a tradition. One of my sisters joined us this year for an amazing spread that included local ingredients. In season, some of the ingredients are grown right outside the restaurant's door. Included in brunch was a tour of the winery. You can see the tasting station (one of quite a few) in front of the giant stack of wine casks.
In addition to wine, they also make spirits and microbrews. After the tour, I tried something called Baerengfang (with that name, how could I not, right?) which was a honey brandy. It would definitely keep you warm on a cold winter's night! They have a pretty extensive selection of fruit wines, grape wines, distilled spirits, and microbrews. Something for everyone. Now that the weather is warming up, it's also a good time to try (which I haven't yet, but plan on doing) their picnic lunches. You order a lunch online on the day of your visit, and come to the winery to enjoy it. In season, they have fruit picking, but it's also a beautiful spot just to relax and enjoy a good lunch (and adult beverages, if you so choose).
