The 3 Best Wineries & Vineyards on Cape Cod
With three award-winning wineries to explore, Cape Cod is the perfect getaway for wine enthusiasts. Charming tasting rooms and barrel-aging cellars filled with premium wines that showcase our unique terroir. This is what you’ll find on your tour of the finest Cape Cod wineries.
Here are three of our favorites.
1. First Crush Winery | Olde Depot, 527 North Main Street, Harwich
Hobbyist turned winemaker Frank Puzio located his winery – First Crush – directly off the Cape Cod Rail Trail and has set out to immerse visitors into a full view of his actual winemaking facility. You’ll be enchanted by your surroundings, which feature stainless tanks, wine barrels, and one of the largest antique corkscrew collections in existence. And you’ll be wowed by the knowledge of the staff, as well as the quality and taste of the First Crush wines. Whether you choose the standard or premier tasting options, you’ll love this hidden gem. Don’t miss their famous Turbo Wine Slushy!
2. Cape Cod Winery | 4 Oxbow Road, East Falmouth
Once home to one of the very first strawberry farms in the area, the Orlandella family found a stunning backdrop for their Cape Cod vineyard and winery. They’ve created a charming oasis just three miles from the ocean in the coastal town of East Falmouth. You’ll be treated to tastings under a post and beam tent. Crushed seashells underfoot. A fire pit for chilly days. Live music concert series. Vino and vinyasa yoga. Nine varieties of wine. And more. Their popular Rose’ Mermaid Water never disappoints! Bring your own bite to eat and claim a cozy spot in the vineyard to call your own.
3. Truro Vineyards of Cape Cod | 11 Route 6A, North Truro
Truro brought ‘maritime grape growing’ to the Cape, harvesting Chardonnay, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot, directly on their 5-acre farm. The sandy soil, warm ocean breezes and temperate climate combine to produce wines with such intense flavor, you will swear you are tasting Cape Cod. Your innkeeper recommends the chardonnay. Stop by for a tasting in their carefully restored 1830’s farmhouse. Have lunch on their beautiful grounds. And check out their new onsite South Hollow Spirits distillery. Hand crafted rums and gin from a 250-gallon copper pot still? Sign us up!
