​Our farm sits on a beautiful piece of land; just under 9 acres.
The month of April finds Marshall  pruning all of our 700 or so grapevines. 
Come June it's time to do the regular upkeep of the vines which includes putting up more
wire, repairing the wire and fence posts, and making sure the irrigation system works. By
the time July comes around its time to do pest control. By late August we're checking the
sugar content to see if how close it is harvest time. Towards the end of September is usually when we
harvest the grapes. That's a very busy day! Come November we have to slow down a bit
since it's getting colder outside but we're busy inside keeping an eye on the wine. Through
out this year we're also hosting brunches, dinners, weddings, bus tours as well as privately
hosted parties. We love what we do and we're happy that it has become our full time occupation.

Grace Metalious wrote the famous controversial novel Peyton Place. She lived in the house
that is now The Gilmanton Winery.

"Despite the bitterness, Grace vowed she would never leave Gilmanton — it was the only
place, she told reporters, she felt at home. With the $1,500 she received for signing a
contract to produce two more novels for Messner, Grace bought new bathing suits for the
Metalious and Wilkens girls, secured a loan to purchase her dream house on Meadow Pond
Road, and put a deposit on a second-hand Cadillac.
