fter years of wandering through life, Megan Couture found herself working for a winery in Quincy, and dreaming of owning a winery. She has spent 10 years making that dream come true. Her winery, Errant Cellars in Quincy, salutes those peripatetic early years.
“Errant means to wander without cause or reason,” Couture said “When I was trying to decide on a name for the winery, I came across that word and it seemed really fitting.” It’s been a decade, and Couture does not see herself going anywhere. The winery recently added storage space and a commercial kitchen, both longtime goals of Couture’s.
