19. Explore the vineyards in Rhode Island

If you have a wine connoisseur on your list, treat him or her to a vineyard tour through Rhode Island. Southeast New England is home to five vineyards with treats ready for some tasting. Whether your loved one is a wine enthusiast or just a fan, head through the area between Newport and North Dartmouth, Mass., which have joined in a collaborative effort called the Coastal Wine Trail. Check out Greenvale Vineyards in Portsmouth, Sakonnet Vineyards in Little Compton, or Newport Vineyards in Middletown for some fine wine and lessons on the popular drink.
