tasting starts here
When you first arrive at The Vista of Maine you will be greeted by the Big Red Barn. Originally built in 1833 by the local 'Hill' Family - this barn is now home to our tasting room, private event rooms, farm store, Vista Grill, and seasonal bakery.
Maniac Hard Ciders
Hard cider made from apples we grow and press ourselves on the farm we've been running since 1803. Never from concentrate, made with pride right here on the farm.
Ricker Hill Wines
Each bottle of Ricker Hill Wine is a testament to our commitment to quality and the art of winemaking. Explore the flavors and aromas that dance harmoniously, marrying the elegance of wine grapes with the crispness of apples.
Non-alcoholic Ciders
Indulge in the rich flavors of autumn with our McIntosh Blend and Cran-Breeze Nonalcoholic Cider. Each bottle is a testament to our dedication to quality, authenticity, and the art of cider making. So, come and experience the taste of nature's bounty in every sip, and let our cider transport you to an orchard in full bloom.
Apple cider vinegar
Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) has been used for many years for it's health benefits and taste. However, not all ACV is the same. To truly experience all that this amazing elixir has to offer, it needs to be raw, unfiltered, and contain "Mother".
Kids Welcome
At Vista of Maine, we offer a serene and relaxing alternative to the hustle and bustle of traditional fall festivities. While we shy away from the corn maze and carnival side of autumn, we provide a peaceful and enjoyable apple-picking experience for the whole family to enjoy.
Bring your little ones along and let their imaginations soar at our playground and Lumberjack Shack! Equipped with toys, and slides, they'll have a blast exploring and playing while you take in the breathtaking views of our orchards while sipping ciders.
