    What a great place! We stopped off in the afternoon on a Wednesday during a short trip to the Berkshires. First off, LOVE that you can bring the dogs. Is this normal for an orchard? I'm not familiar. They have the cutest little store with apple cider donuts, fudge, little store items including an apple liqueur of some kind that I was lucky enough to try and that shit is DANGEROUS. They also have a wine tasting area and cider/beer tasting area. We got 2 apple cider donuts (obviously) which were incredible. We also tried a cider flight. I asked for "the fruitest shit you have" and we got a nice spread of different and interesting things including a lavender cider. All of the staff were super nice and friendly. The place is also massive if you are into a lot of walking and things.

    Absolutely loved this place and wish it was closer to home for me! Excellent little shop with the most amazing apple cider donuts you will ever taste. One of the owners, Sarah, did a wine tasting for me and was extremely friendly and provided some great background on the various wines. The wines were really good and they had a good variety of sweet and dry options. There's a nice cozy wood burning fireplace with couches to sit and enjoy a glass of wine in the winter months. For those who want to be more active, there is snowshoeing available with snowshoes for rent while you're there. Didn't try that but maybe next year :)

    My favorite spot for sipping hard ciders and making new friends. Wine tasting, cider doughnuts all with a cozy fire place. Cheers

    We find this to be a fun place to bring visiting friends and family. The orchard also has a store and bar. They usually have fresh cider donuts, various jars of pickles, jellies, popcorn - all from local sources. The bar area is fun with a big fireplace for colder days. During the summer, pick your own apples. And the staff, friendly and fun.

    The atmosphere at Hilltop is always welcoming and friendly. We tasted some award winning wines and donuts.

    Sara and David always provide a quality tasting experience and excellent customer service. The cider donuts are heavenly and made year round. The hard cider and wine tastings are the best!

    Incredibly friendly staff. Came in and did a wine/cider tasting. HAD to get some apple cider donuts while we were too (they were delicious)! Lots of snack items and things to try while you're here. Indoor and outdoor seating (a lovely fireplace inside for cool days) There is apple picking here too! Overall a nice visit here!

    We visited in the summer Cute little winery. Nice selection of ciders Sara was very sweet and accommodating. I'm sure when the fall rolls around and the orchard is open for apple picking it would be amazing!!

    A beautiful temperature outside made us not to miss to enjoy the weather. The first thing we thought was going to the closest orchard where we were staying. This place offers the best cider and cider donut in the area. Definitely worth trying , was not disappointed of it that made us want to come back on Apple season to enjoy further what it offers. Due to Covid, their wine tasting for the season was closed down but offers a simplest form of enjoying their wine produce , in a packed container. The place follows social distancing procedure. Staff is friendly. Beautiful place to stop by.

    Fresh baked cider donuts!

    Make this your main stop in the Berkshires! We popped in about an hour before they closed without a reservation, expecting to be turned away but oh the contrary! Sara greeted us with the warmest welcome, she truly is such a light. We were visiting the Berkshires from CA, and felt right at home in seconds. We joined in on a tasting she was hosting and tried a glass of Apfelkorn apple wine, safe to say I met my match. Ordering as many bottles as I can before the holidays. We hadn't even tried their apple cider donuts yet, I was already in heaven and those sent me over! The grounds are beautiful, the people are beautiful, the cider and wine are beautiful. Can't recommend enough!! My only complaint is our visit was short, but that's our fault!

    We had the most wonderful experience here last night! We were trying to find something to do near…read moreGhent and my friend found this vineyard that offered wine tasting, an activity none of us have ever done before and thought it would be a relaxing way to spend the evening. We were hosted by the most knowledgeable and gracious couple (Lisa and Francis) who were welcoming and made our first experience a memorable one. We learned about the history behind the vineyard, the amazing artwork that decorates it (inside and out) and left feeling more well versed with wine. I am normally not a Chardonnay fan but since their Chardonnay is made in a steel barrel, it doesn't have the same buttery taste that an oak barrel would.. and I LOVED IT! (if y'all read this review, I hope that's correct). I also was surprised that I really liked their Sherry, which is one of the highest proofs spirits that they serve. It was strong but it was something enjoyable to sip on! (Def went home with a bottle of each) We happened to arrive in a night where us wasn't busy so if you arrive and it looks quiet, do not leave! We ended up receiving VIP one-on-one service that may have been different if the place was packed (which they mentioned it was the night before) The couple who spent time with us were so friendly, and after noticing a gift basket assembly on the table, even let me purchase it since I live in the city and wouldn't be back up this way for a while. Our only regret was not getting there earlier in the day so that we could enjoy the outdoor experience of the venue, since the property is covered in beautiful grassy fields and sculptures that are even on some of the bottle labels. This is a highly recommended place! Ask about their cute gift baskets and make sure to go before the middle of December before they close for winter. They will reopen in April... and I will def be back!

    Sabba Vineyard is absolutely charming. The owner, Abby, is passionate about this wonderful winery…read morehe's created. The vineyard, located in Old Chatham is gorgeous and adorned by pieces of Abby's own metal art sculptures. Recently visited on a Saturday when they have live music as delightful background for sipping wine and enjoying a cheeseboard. Great to have another beautiful winery in the Capital District.
