Then, we'll get back on the bus and head to Layton's Chance Vineyard & Winery. Layton's Chance is Dorchester County's first winery! It is owned and operated by the Layton family, who has farmed the fields of Dorchester County for nearly 100 years, cultivating corn, wheat, and soybeans. They started the winery in 2010. When you arrive at the winery, enjoy a tour of the vineyard, as the winery staff informs your group of the grapes that are used in the production of their wine. You'll also have the opportunity to see the machinery and equipment that they use to make the wine. After that, it's time to go into the tasting room to sample some of the many wines that are available. Wine will be available to purchase to take home.
