Our Wines

Nestled in the beautiful White Hills of Shelton lies one of the state's premier wineries.

For over 160 years, six generations of the Jones family have farmed their land in the White Hills of Shelton, Connecticut. The Jones Winery continues the family tradition of growing high-quality crops that celebrate the great bounty of local farmlands. The farm’s vineyard and famous berry harvests allow the winery to create a wonderful selection of classic grape and specialty fruit wines. 

Over the years, Jones Winery has earned numerous accolades for its wines, growing its reputation in Connecticut and beyond.
