Sail to Trail is a negociant winery in Worcester MA, bringing the urban winery concept to New England. We pride ourselves on bottling wines that can stand up to scrutiny by the most selective of oenophiles, but without the formality and snootiness frequently associated with wine. Our quality is outstanding, and in order to demonstrate our commitment to that quality, we have submitted many of our wines to Wine Enthusiast for rating. As of today we have received an 89 for our 2015 Walla Walla Cabernet Sauvignon (Same score, appellation, and vintage for Doubleback's Flying B Cab, so outstanding company) and an 88 for our 2015 Zinfandel and are awaiting results for our 2017 Cab and Chardonnay. We are on the second vintage for 3 of our wines after having sold out of the first. Our branding is light, fun, and a bit unconventional but works extraordinarily well with our target market. Our retail presence has expanded rapidly here in MA and we have just gotten distribution in the State of New Hampshire. We are looking for distribution partners in other states in order to aggressively grow the brand without compromising quality.
