vineyards

Heard it through the grapevine.... by Cynthia Catera

Cue the California Grapes..... (replace with New Jersey)

I'm a big supporter of wine, and in a non-discriminatory kind of way. Red, White, Dessert, chilled, mulled, you get the picture! But I've never actually been to a vineyard to see where these little grapes are born. This June, I was finally able to check that off my list at Beneduce Vineyards . A relatively new vineyard in New Jersey which you can come for a tasting, a tractor tour, or bring your friends, food, watch live music, and drink the wine they produce on site. They also have food trucks too, if you're not in the mood to BYOF :) Again, everyone who worked there was so hospitable it was like you're in your own backyard....if only mine looked like that! 

My Favs: Shotgun Red, Tuxedo, and the Dry Riesling 

Next door to the vineyard is an airport, where afterwards we took a hot air ballon ride! What a perfect day! :)
