Fathers’ Day Weekend 2023

We Celebrate Family Traditions: Hospitality and Generosity
🗓️ Saturday, June 17, 11 am to 5pm | Sunday, June 18, 11am to 4pm
🥂 $10 tasting fee

During the 33 years when our family winemaking at home preceded our winery business, the wine was for sharing with family and friends. In the tradition of our favorite “Dad”, founder, Gene Ventimiglia, we will offer complimentary bottles of wines from the family wine cellar. These bottles were purchased from wineries of New Jersey, Virginia, Connecticut, Colorado, California, & New York. For each guest who buys 3 bottles of our wines, we will give a 750mL bottle from the private collection. (You choose white or red, we give a “blind bottle” grab-bag style!)
In addition, we will taste our 2002 Fratelli Ventimiglia Cabernet Franc along with the tasting of our current wine selections. Anyone who purchases a case of wine this weekend will receive a complimentary bottle of that 2002 special reserve (while supplies last).
We will serve finger snacks complimentary to the wine tasting.
We are truly thankful for the good friends we have made over the years, and all the new friends who keep joining us. Our 50-acre farm is a marvelous place to spend an afternoon, and everybody seems happy to be here! Plan to take a hike in our wooded trails; pack a picnic or order from Anabelle’s for delivery. Enjoy!
