    Surprise Proposal
    Tammie D.

    Spent my Mother's Day just how I liked outside. Sun, wine and food trucks right up my alley. Yes it was very crowded but hey the event was outside. I enjoyed me a lobster roll, truffle fries and Sangria. Lines were long but thank god L'Acqario food truck was right next to the wine tasting trailer. I ordered my food then hopped on the wine line so probably between the two lines I stood for 25 mins while my son was stuck getting wings for about an hour. I also got to see a surprise proposal so congrats to the lovely couple.

    When a few times once for the food truck festival another time for the bacon festival and then another time just to get extra sangria lol they're sangria is delicious and they used to make a chocolate cocktail. That was delicious. Highly recommend if you're looking for a fun day out everything is laid out perfectly.

    Came here for one of their food truck festivals it was the Latino festival. There was an OK amount of food trucks. I definitely suggest getting there before 5pm if you want to enjoy the food because the food trucks did run out of some food items. This winery is a nice size and is family friendly because they have many play areas for the kids. They do have some seating that is provided but many people brought blankets and chairs to sit in. I came here with a group of friends and we had fun. I wish they played Latino music from the beginning but they were playing country music but it was a Latino festival. As soon as they played the latino music everyone got up and started to dance and seemed to have even more of a good time. Tickets for the festival aren't too expensive plus you get a souvenir wine glass. The bottles of wine and sangria are on the pricey side and will run you about $30.

    We came over Mother's Day weekend and had a wonderful time! We got glasses to keep which was included with the entrance fee ($15). We wandered inside and did a tasting and then bought a bottle to enjoy outside. All ages are welcome here which is very convenient for any parent. They have a huge outdoor area with fire pits, live music, playgrounds, and plenty of seating! It felt like I was camping out there! Don't worry if the weather isn't the greatest the day you go. They have a ton of indoor seating as well. When we went, there were food trucks open but if not they have a little area to order food. The organization of the event could have been better. When we first arrived it wasn't clear where the line was to pay for the entrance fee, and nobody was checking that people paid. One of the workers at the tasting said that several people were let in without getting a glass. Several fire pits were not being attended to as well and were dying out. They do offer tours of the vineyard here that I'll be looking forward to do the next time I visit!

    I love this winery. They have fun events all the time. I usually come when they have the food trucks. Their wine is very reasonable priced and they give you a wine glass with entry fee. I always bring some wine to take home.

    A great place to visit in the fall with friends and family. There's wine tasting, food trucks and they offered a complimentary wine glass with purchase of a ticket. There's also a lot of parking. The parking and entrance is a bit far from the actual hub area so they have a complimentary tractor that drives people over if you don't want to walk the few minutes.

    I attended the food truck festival with a friend and we both enjoyed our time. We arrived at around 1:30pm and the place was already packed! A lot of food truck options and a lot of space to sit and enjoy. We wanted to be away from the crowd and noise a bit and there were a lot of benches available near the drop off point (and right by the wine bar!). I've also been to the winery on a regular day and it was a fun time with delicious food.

    You practically are paying here for the VIEW. The wine was OK. The view was amazing. But this place gets TWO stars for two reasons only: The bartender. You can tell she was annoyed. Most wineries, which is the reason why we went there, take their time explaining different options, why one wine is better than the other one, etc. To her credit, she was in the bar ALONE. Granted it was a Friday afternoon, but you would think the owner will know this and make sure he has enough staff. When we got there the place only had two more tables outside to sit, this would had been an indication they are busy, we were a party of 4 and we wanted to try some options, bartender was annoyed with our questions, our requests, and had another two couples waiting "on line" and she just wanted us to "make up our mind" ‍ Second thing the food.. REALLY? Five options for food is all we had: sandwich, salad, ONE option of cheese platter. Maybe I'm being too hard on them or maybe my experience in other wineries has tampered this review. But I'm NOT new to the "winery" world, and most places have a BIGGER selection and BETTER service. Sorry, I'm never coming here again. Maybe is great in the weekends?? We were told there will be a food truck outside and music on a Saturday.. then if they are gonna give such a poor service, they should be open ONLY in the weekends? Just my take on it. Two stars: one location, two ambience. The rest was unmemorable. Hard pass for me.

    Second trip, spectacular views and great tasting experience. Food was delicious as well: Veggie sandwich with goat cheese and crisp bread, burgers- large, salad- fresh. Large pretzel was the only downfall as it was pretty cold.

    Not super far if you're coming from north Jersey. Very lovely establishment. Lots of food trucks to pick from. Lots for the kids to do. My boys loved it. Staff was friendly. Didn't get to do the wine tasting thought cuz the lines were super long and took forever to move. If there's one thing they need to improve on, it's that. It's a winery and we didn't get to try the wine. Overall great and would come back.

    Riesling and chocolate wine
    Lynnsey O.

    This is my favorite winery. They have a great selection of wines there is something for everybody. As pictured, my 3 favorites are the chocolate wine, white Riesling, and red sangria. The prices are extremely affordable and the staff is great & attentive. This winery is extremely clean as well and offers an adorable free ride to view the vineyard. Highly recommended!

Please make sure you come next year and enjoy the festival experience. You can bring your own food or partake of all the food trucks. The grounds are absolutely beautiful and great opportunities for pictures. Service was excellent by all staff on the facilities and so welcoming. And running into another Elite Yelper was a cherry on top.

    Valenzano Winery in Shamong, NJ is a family operated business, ran by the sweetest and most…read morewelcoming staff! I came on a cold winters day, so we obviously had to sit inside. Their tasting room is beautiful but super cozy. I immediately felt relaxed the second I walked in. The winery is surrounded by forest and farmland. A picturesque landscape to admire while you drink wine! We sampled a bunch of their wines, and I finally tried their famous Shamong Blush and I get the hype now. It was smooth, sweet and went down easily. I really also enjoyed the Shamong Red and the Perfect Pear! Highly recommend doing a flight to sample different types of wines. They do have food onsite which they get from Summit Catering -- at the time of our visit (February 2025), we got the flatbread, cheeseboard, mac & cheese bites, and baked brie. Everything paired so well with the wine and just made it feel like a whole experience, not just a tasting. This is such a good spot to spend the day with your people. Date night, girls' day, family time -- you could easily hang here for hours like we did! And their event space is so pretty. If you're planning a wedding, shower, birthday -- this would be such a dreamy place to celebrate. If you need weekend plans, this is your sign. This was totally worth the hour drive!
