PRESENTING FOR YOUR PLEASURE

Cava Winery & Vineyard
“In our process of winemaking, we hope to achieve outright alchemy.”

“Situated in the beautiful Skylands of northwest New Jersey, Cava Winery & Vineyard is a story of a family journey. Our path, in simple terms, is respecting the old ways but creating something new and maintaining connectedness. After tracing our family lineage back to Italy and finding our name on the side of a bottle, a dream evolved into reality.”

DiMatteo Vineyards
“…the wine list continues to grow, and many of the wines are award winning year after year.”

“We are featured as one of the Outer Coastal Plain Wineries. The Outer Coastal Plains American Viticultural Area (AVA) has climatic and soil conditions which are amongst the best in the East Coast for producing high quality wine.”

Plagido’s Winery

“All grapes that are used in our wines are Estate Grown.”

“We pride ourselves with not only being a family owned business that treats our customers like family but also, by doing things right.”

Tomasello Winery

“Founded over 78 years ago by our grandfather, we are the third generation of Tomasellos to build upon his great vision.”

“…We would like to take that a step beyond and say that: Yes, great wines are made at our vineyard, but it is the celebrations, the gatherings, the good times with family and friends that makes a wine even greater.”

 Valenzano Winery & Vineyard

“In 1996 Valenzano Winery became Burlington County’s first winery.”

  “15 years after their inception Valenzano Wines has become a top sold brand in wine stores throughout New Jersey and is clearly recognized as a leader in east-coast winemaking & viticulture.”
