I had the pleasure of attending a preview gathering at Kingdom of the Hawk Vineyard. It is situated…read morea few miles away from the cluster of other wineries in the southeast corner of CT. Kingdom of the Hawk is the sister winery to Saltwater Vineyard. The event was wonderful, we were treated to complimentary glasses of wine and cider (the cider was from the New England Brewing Company) accompanied by delicious catered hors d'oeuvres. We were able to explore the grounds at our leisure. The owners were present and they kindly stopped to chat with the visitors. The vineyard's exterior design exudes a charming modern barn aesthetic. While the interior has an industrial contemporary aesthetic, with polished concrete floors, steel beams, and a loft area with tables. The ambiance is reminiscent of its sister winery, Saltwater Vineyard. The vineyard has 2 parking lots, gender stalled handicap-accessible restrooms, and a beautiful ceremonial lawn. In conversation with one of the employees, I discovered that the wine is currently produced at Saltwater Vineyard. However, they will eventually combine the yields from both wineries in the future, and create wines for both vineyards. Given its ambiance, amenities, and scenic setting, I can easily see this place becoming a sought-after wedding venue and popular stop along the Connecticut wine trail. I definitely recommend visiting when they open to the public.

We went for the Moonlight Social on June 29, 2026 and were underwhelmed. We paid $50 as a couple…read more There was no checkin so we, and others, were walking in with no information or payment verification. Lines for food were long, one sign indicated the tuna poke bowl could be ordered at the Tuna/Oyster station but signage at the station only listed pricing for cocktails. After paying $20+ for poke in a small styrofoam take-out container which had some sub-par tuna, we listened to some annoying beat-box DJ music and called it a failed night out. It was like they've never done this before. We arrived about an hour after the event started and they seemed to already be "in the weeds". The vendors were unimpressive with minimal offerings. We paid for entry, but many likely did not, and we basically got nothing for our money. It was a one and done. As locals, we're dismayed we were taken advantage of by a local business.

Unfortunately, our stay was filled with several issues, beginning with being given the wrong room configuration. We reserved a king bed but were given two twin beds, and there were multiple other service and accommodation problems throughout our stay. The most disappointing part was not the mistakes themselves, but the complete lack of follow-up. I left two phone messages and sent two emails after our stay. I was repeatedly told someone would contact me, but I never received a response. For a property at this level and price point, I expected much better customer service and accountability.
