Garden State Wine Growers Association’s Wine Trails

The best way to experience New Jersey wine country is by visiting multiple wineries on our statewide Wine Trail Weekends each year. Our scheduled Mother’s Day Wine Trail Weekend, Holiday Wine Trail Weekend, Wine & Chocolate Trail Weekends and provide a thematic and seasonal way to enjoy our wineries. Please check to make sure each winery you plan to visit is participating in the event before you start out.
