A true gem in the Lakes Region! The Italian food is top quality, the wine is smooth and beautifully made, and the service couldn’t be friendlier. The owners make you feel right at home, and the recent renovations give the place such a relaxing, cozy vibe. Can’t wait to come back!

Spent a snowy Sunday afternoon at the Gilmanton Winery for a wine tasting. This place is very quaint. We each tasted 6 of their wines. They have wines from very dry to very sweet. We also ordered a lovely charcuterie board. The service was excellent, the wines were tasty and the atmosphere was cozy. We left with a bottle as well. If you're feeling a little cooped up, head over and relax for a bit!

This place is amazingly quaint and cozy! You get the definite "Cheers" vibe, but with breakfast! The owners come out and introduce themselves and you want them to sit and regale you of tales from yesteryear. He is a vet and his wife was an airline stewardess. The tales they must have! And the food is very good. Ask for seconds if you have the space! Definitely a place I would return to if I am in the area

Had an absolutely amazing dinner at the grand re-opening of the restaurant. The new owners have done a wonderful job giving the place a makeover, the food was absolutely delicious from appetizer to entree and especially the desserts! Staff were super friendly and did great for opening night. Can’t wait to come back and try brunch next time.

If you haven’t checked it out yet, you have to! New owners have really spiced this place up and brought it to life! The food is beyond phenomenal, some of the best in NH. The wine is also phenomenal! Great atmosphere and amazing people!

Great experience, hidden gem! Down an unassuming dirt road leads to this oasis of fine wine and dining! Under new ownership - family owned and operated, we were greeted with warm smiles and well accommodated to our pick of indoor or outdoor seating, and a great selection of red wines as well as a few whites and even beer. The new owners have great plans for improvements to the space to indulge those of all backgrounds. A must visit!

Absolutely amazing!!!!! The flights are great, the place is beautiful and the service is hands down the best so far. The flights are a must try, each of the wines we tried were amazing. We tried two flights, one was the premium and the other was the classic. We also had their charcuterie board which I have to say was awesome a perfect addition with the flights. They also have wines for sale and winery merchandise as well.

100% will be back! Great wine, a beautiful view, wonderful attentive staff. I wish I had an event coming up that I could book with them. Their spaces are Gorgeous! Food is upscale taste but not upscale priced. Had a tasting and bought a bottle for home.
