Priam Vineyards was founded in 1998 in the historic town of Colchester, CT by Gloria Priam and her husband Gary Crump, continuing a family tradition that was started in Budapest, Hungary in the late 1800’s by Andrew Priam, Gloria’s grandfather. In 2002, we became a licensed farm winery, opening the winery in April of 2003.

Our 27 acre farm has 14 acres of grapes in production, with a breathtaking 35 mile view of the New England countryside. We benefit from the unique microclimate of the hills of New London County, just 15 miles from Long Island Sound, where we grow classic European varietals: Cabernet Franc, Gewurztraminer, Chardonnay, Riesling, Muscat, Pinot Grigio and Merlot, as well as American hybrids: Seyval, Cayuga and St. Croix. The rich gravelly soil, sloping hillside, and constant breeze provide the perfect climate for these varietals.
