I have been to Tomasello Winery plenty of times and I have always been pleased. This time was no different. As soon as we walked in we were greeted by the staff behind the bar (wish I knew her name). The customer service is impeccable! The staff was very friendly, and attentive! She was very knowledgeable about the wines and gave us a little history about the tasting. We chose to do two tastings (you can choose 6 wines) so we intentionally chose different wines so that we could broaden our horizon. The wines were great. All tasty however, some did not sit well with my pallet. I really like that they offer oyster crackers to eat while you are tasting the wine to clean you pallet prior to the next tasting. I wish some other wineries would do that. If your pallet is clear prior to tasting different wines you will really be able to identify all of the notes of the different wines. The ambiance was nice as always. Tomasello Winery in Lambertville, NJ is a small quaint tasting room in the middle of old town Lambertville. There isn't much room however, the small space offers a more intimate tasting experience. Overall, it was a great experience. I especially enjoyed all of their ciders particularly the apple cider and watermelon cider. I was able to take some bottles home as well. I thought it was really nice and sweet for the lady to hold our bottles while we went shopping in the town so that we would not have to carry our bottles from store to store. They were heavy bottles so that would have been impossible and not enjoyable. We had a great time and we will be back soon! Please check out Tomasello Winery if you are in the Lambertville area. You will not regret it. Cheers! read more

The Memorial Day weekend turned to be a very gloomy one in the Lambertville NJ area. Tired of the rain we ventured into Tomasello's Winery tasting room and Kathleen greeted us. Kathleen immediately made us Californians right at home, and the place was unassuming and comfortable. We did the flight tasting of the various and ended up buying a bottle of the Cab Franc and the Petit Verdot...both paired well with Monday's grilling. Thank you, Kathleen, see ya next time we are in the area! read more

Tomasello Winery - Lambertville - Kathleen - that made us Californians right at home on a very gloomy day in Lambertville. Bought the Cab Franc and Petit Verdot. - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Lambertville, New Jersey

Popped in and did a tasting with cheeseboard. Super friendly with live acoustic guitar (Dan Keiser). Also bought a bottle of Chardonnay for dinner. read more

We got there when they first opened and the owner was very nice. It was a small but welcoming space. They had a few tables to sit at by the window. They had a wine tasting and food pairing menu. I ordered six different flavors from dry to sweet. I ended up loving some of the other flavors and buying them as gifts. I would definitely recommend visiting. We were able to have a personal conversation with the owner at some points. I would absolutely come back! read more

We stopped in for a tasting and found the wines to be excellent. Kathleen waited on us and was very friendly and attentive. Thank you! We will definitely be back! read more

My friends and I visited Tomasello Winery, having made a reservation days prior. The storefront is a bit on the smaller side, so there is a limited amount of seating available. Everything was clean and tidy, including the bathroom. During our visit, there was only one person working, but everything moved efficiently. The visit was also reasonably priced at $16 pp for a tasting, and we ended up buying two bottles to go. This was a great activity for a cold winter day. read more

Cute little spot, perfect for a quick wine tasting while exploring the town of Lambertville or to grab a bottle of wine to take to a local BYOB. The ladies running the place were very friendly and helpful! read more

We LOVED our day drinking stop here on a Thursday in August! Kathleen (I'm pretty sure that's her) was knowledgeable, friendly, helpful and fun! We chatted while we did our tasting and went home with several bottles of wine! The orange cream is SO fun (mixed it in a blender with vanilla ice cream). Great stop if you are in this cute little town. She even recommended a spot for lunch because we were undecided. read more

Tomasello Winery - Lambertville - So fun! 6 wines for $16. Worth it to taste them because I bought 3 of these! - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Lambertville, New Jersey

I came to visit with a friend and we used a coupon, which offered a wine tasting, two free wine glasses, and a free bottle of wine of your choice. Quite generous. It's a cute little cafè-style winery with nice windows to sit near in the middle of the Lambertville shopping and eating area. The wine was great and so was the service. The employee(s) are pretty friendly so they kept engaging in conversation with us and even jumping into our conversation, which may or may not be a downside for some. Overall, I would recommend. read more

Nice little stop when visiting Lambertville... but be prepared to wait awkwardly for a table. It is a small shop... with not too much seating. Nice to stop in a purchase bottles to take with you. But if you are patient enough, and so want to enjoy a wine tasting and charcuterie board and truffles, their wines are really good! I loved trying all the different fruity wines and the seasonal wines like their mulled wine. It was served warm and it would be perfect on a chilly type day. With the wine tasting, you can also keep the wine glass as a souvenir. The people serving was very knowledgeable and service was great despite being super busy. But they were very accommodating to everyone coming in and transparent about the wait times. Definitely a great stop to sit, relax and to try some wines! read more

I loved the place, the ambience. I would definitely recommend this winery tasting...I had 2020 Pinot Noir, 2020 Napa Valley Cap Souv, 2021 Syrah, American Pinot Grigio, Shore House Rosé and Brut Rosé, my favorite was American Pinot Grigio. The service was amazing super nice and friendly Lady...my favorite place in Lambertville read more

We went here for a tasting on a Friday afternoon. We were in the area celebrating our anniversary. It's a small but cute tasting room. The woman who worked there (I wish I got her name) was so sweet, personable, knowledgeable and made the experience more fun! We did the tasting and bought a few bottles to take home. The wine there is very cute, lots of different flavors, blueberry yum! We will definitely go back, it's in the downtown area of Lambertville, so much to do in the area. They took great precautions for covid, easy to reserve for the tasting (I believe a walk in came after us that were seated right away too). Definitely recommend! Great value too, I think the tasting was only $5! read more

The tasting was great. The cheese board with the dark chocolate was phenomenal. My personal favorite was the Vintage Port. The Rainer Red was great too. read more

Nice staff. Good wine for tastings. Fun place to stop in while walking around Lambertville.

A great tasting room ... stop in and support! We came here looking for Blueberry wines and founds them ... ALL! Huge selections to purchase! I was impressed with Dominique- she was really sweet and kind to me and my friends - we each purchased the $5 tasting and then bought bottles - we just had to tip her as she was really accommodating and answered so many wine questions for us! Oh, I'm a member now too -so I will be back! Cheers! read more

Small intimate setting, walls painted wine-red, delicious wines, amid display of local artist's paintings of the area. We reserved the Reidel glass version, and the Cheese tray. We got to pick from the list of available wines that day. The Reidel glasses were the large goblets :-) with samples served in small glass pourers on a wood, numbered tray, with a list made by the host of his recommended order by which to sample each. The cheese tray was a bit sparse though, I'd have liked more than a tablespoon of walnuts and more crackers, but all, including cheeses, were tasty and fresh. My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and took our time having fun coming up with descriptions and scenarios that we felt suited each wine. There were only 2 other women there when we arrived and they left soon afterward, so we literally had the place to ourselves. The host never bothered nor pressured us. He was very nice. He even comped us a sample of a creamy dessert wine, as it was my B-day. **Recommend. :-D read more

First winery visit while on vacation. Small little shop and very knowledgeable staff. We found multiple wines that we enjoyed. Well worth getting the groupon....includes tasting and two bottles of wine plus more. read more

I have been going Wine Tasting across in New Hope for years and didn't think it could get better than Bucks Wine Shop....and well it kind of can't...I give them 5 stars because they have awesome hand painted wine glasses and amazing customer service....... BUT........this place does wine tasting fo' FREE! Now seriously, given the fact that it's a bit of an unfair comparison due to the fact that Tomasello only stocks their own wine and Bucks has various, I will credit Tomasello for having very different and delicious variates (which have won multiple awards). We tasted 5 kinds and all were delicious. But ended up taking a bottle of the blueberry sparkling wine, because at $9 it was an incredible deal. Their shop is a little hidden, so it's easy to walk past it, but take a look for yourself. I can't wait to come back and have some more.....BEFORE going to New Hope. read more

Great outlet for their winery. Cute space with plenty of wine and seats and high top tables. Good location for going to buy a bottle of wine to bring to dinner. Small area of town and lots of people out on a Friday night. The woman who helped us with our wine tasting was so nice and patient. You should call ahead to make a tasting appointment. read more

My fiance and I had the groupon and decided to stop here on a beautiful fall Saturday. I will start by saying that Lambertville is such a cute little town and the tasting room location is right off the main road so it's easy to get to. The room is a little small but the employees there did such a great job of taking their time to talk to us about the wines and really make the tasting fun. Also as we learned from talking to them is that they are dog friendly so you can bring your pooch, although I would say be careful because there are some fragile things in that tasting room that our dog might accidentally knock over. Overall the wines were pretty good and with the groupon we got the tasting for free, a membership to their wine club and two free bottles. I would say stop in if you are in the area for some good wines and good company, I know we will be back again. read more

I bought a groupon to here for my moms christmas present. We of course had a great time because 1, we love wine, 2, we can make a good time out of anything. I was slightly disappointed to know this was just a strange little store that sold tomasello wine. It seemed like the wine tasting was going to be some extravagant thing. There were no seats at the bar thats also the register. So we had to awkwardly stand in the middle of the store and do our tasting with people walking around us. We also felt rushed. However, positives: wine was really good (loved the sangiovse), great location to walk around and do shopping, the girl who did our tasting was so knowledgable. read more

Open on a holiday Monday (when it was pouring buckets, no less) + 1 Knowledgeable and friendly staff (despite the holiday/weather, contrary to other reviews) + 1 Great selection (30+ bottles, at least) and only $5 for 5 tastings + 1 You get to keep your glass if you'd like, great location in historic and beautiful Lambertville and cute, un-obnoxious gift wares and wine accessories in the store + 1 No tables, not even a chair or two, and can get very cramped/hot with only a handful of tasters in the place - 1 Overall a great experience, we even got a lunch recommendation from the attendant which worked out really well...As long as you don't mind standing and sipping, and sharing your space if a few groups come in, this is delicious wine at fantastically reasonable prices. Try it for yourself! read more

My wife and I went in on a Monday around noon and had the place to ourselves which was nice. The woman working was very knowledgeable and helpful. The best part of the tasting was that you could pick any 5 from a very wide selection, and my wife and I ended up tasting some of the same and some where we picked different items. We both enjoyed everything we tried, which is often not the case. I'd highly recommend trying their sparkling fruit wine (we tried blueberry) or one of their non-sparkling fruit wines (we tried blackberry) as they are definitely something that you can't find anywhere at that level of quality. They apparently do quite the worldwide business with these wines. Prices are extremely reasonable, we ended up buying a Chardonnay, a Chambourcin and the Blackberry fruit wine all for only around $40. read more

Keep in mind that it is only a tasting room in Lambertville, the winery itself is elsewhere. GREAT idea to stop in if you are strolling around New Hope or Lambertville, especially on a lovely day. You get to taste 5 wines and keep the glass if you wish. The store is filled to the brim with classy wine gifts, much classier than the kitsch you usually see in wine stores. read more

Great wines in this little tasting room in the quaint and charming Lambertville. $5 gets you 5 tastings, and I liked almost everything I tried. Definitely has something for everyone, from sweet fruit wines to sparkling to dry reds. The wines I LOVED were the Sparkling Pinot Noir ($20/bottle), Merlot ($10/bottle), and the Blackberry Wine ($10/bottle). Very reasonable prices. I love that the tasting room is Dog Friendly! I wish they had at least a table or two where you could sit, but that's okay. The service was okay -- he answered questions but just didn't seem like he wanted to be there at all. Not that I can really blame him, since it was a Monday, a Holiday, and was pouring outside. read more

This place is fabulous...and their wine is great too ;) For $5 you get 5 tastes of various wines...from reds, to whites, to dessert wines, to sparkling wines or the variety of fruit wines. The staff is knowlegdeable about the wines and their other uses (reduce the almond wine to make a glaze for roast duck!). Try it out...you will not be disappointed...I went home with only 2 peoples of wine...wish I had gotten some more =) read more

This was such a great find! The tasting room was intimate but not overcrowded on a Saturday. $15 for 8 wines during a tasting. Our hostess, Dominique, was informative and lovely. I recommend the Pinot Grigio and Almond flavored wine. read more

Best deal in town. $5 gets you 5 tastings (yes five) plus a wine glass with the name of the winery on it to take home! A lovely woman waited on us when we were there. She was very approachable, not snooty at all. I think she is the manager. She was extremely knowledgeable about wine and offered some great suggestions. We bought two bottles of ice wine. It won the NJ Governor's cup this year - excellent! read more

I spotted this place randomly when wandering the streets of Lambertville and decided to stop in. It is a tasting room only, their main winery is in Hammonton. I've had some Tomasello offerings before and enjoyed them, so I wanted to try more of their wines. I'm not a wine connoisseur or expert by any means, so my opinion on the wines themselves shouldn't hold much clout. I prefer dry wines, while my girlfriend prefers more sweet wines and we both liked what we tried. Tastings here are not free - I believe they were $5 for five tastings, but you get to keep the nice Tomasello Winery wine glass as well. If you want to buy any bottles, we found that they are priced quite fairly. I'd say it's worth a quick stop if you're wandering Lambertville looking for something to do! read more

Stopped in on a Saturday, to try Tomasello's as they have just been awarded NJ Winery of the Year Award. The store is very nice, dog friendly, but the setup becomes very crowded with only a few people in the store. The two women were working at the time did NOT look like they were getting along. The women who served us was not informative, just poured the glasses and stood there. I get that sometimes you have a bad day, but get it together and at least try to hide it from the customers; have a glass of wine and chill. The wine was very good, and price was O.K. I purchased 2 bottles including their award winning Pinot Noir. 3 Star'd it, decent prices, nice shop. read more

This was our third stop going around wine tasting over the weekend and we were all very impressed with their wine selection and overall taste. They have a great deal that if you purchase the glass for $5, you get the glass itself and 5 tastings that day. Whenever you bring the glass back you get unlimited tastings! The two people who helped us out were really informative and nice as well. The reason I didn't give a full 5 stars is because they are currently under construction (which isn't what bothered me), but what it actually looked like before these renovations. It was in serious need of updating because the space & wine itself is great. I'm excited to see what it looks like after all the additions are done! Which apparently should be sometime in April. read more

My boyfriend and I stopped in for a tasting here and we had the best time! The wine was delicious, the atmosphere was lovely, and the staff was absolutely awesome. We had the best time sipping wine and chatting with the staff. Highly recommend stopping in if you have the chance! read more

Cranberry wine is ammmmmazing!! And you get to keep the glass when wine tasting, how awesome is that? Lots of sweet wines for a girl that wants to like wine, but is still working on it :) read more

Dreadful was the first word that came to mind when I left the tasting room. The disappointment was due more to the service than the wine, though that was awful too. Despite being the only two people there the guy working at the time did not make my husband and I feel welcome in the least. No telling us about the different wines, the winery itself, production, etc. - just 'whaddaya want next?' and hostile silence while we gulped down their swill (I've never finished a tasting so quickly). I would have been much more open to enjoying their wine if their staff knew how to conduct a tasting (and treat their customers) properly. Ridiculous. read more

We stopped here after a lovely lunch at Lambertville Station. There were some ladies finishing up their orders when we stopped in, so we perused the offerings until we could have a tasting. The woman behind the counter first asked us what our normal wines were (Russian River Old Vine Zins), then started pouring things we might like. Shiraz: tasted like the precursor to a good port; raisin and prune, hazelnut; clean and dry finish Chambourcin: they were out of this, but gave us a taste; dried cherry; clean and dry finish Petit Verdot: my favourite, and the priciest of the bunch (we bought 3 of these $38-20%) This made my entire mouth happy and I started glowing. Literally. Chardonnay: it kind of curled on my tongue to the back of my mouth with that vitamin-A flavour. Light to the tongue, but rich. Not to my tastes Port: Rich and with more nut and fruit, but with that vitamin-A flavour which is not my friend ? Russian grape sparkling: sweet. Much like a fresh Romanian grape chilled in the freezer first. Almost an icy sugar-like taste. Sparkling Blush (we bought 6 bottles of this): Lovely and rich, would be wonderfully paired with salmon or shrimp, or sushi Sparkiling Blueberry: Jim's favourite. Drier than expected. Jim tasted cherry in this one. Bought 1 bottle Blueberry Wine: Smelled somewhere between concord grape jelly and fresh blueberry jam. Lovely. Bought 2 bottles. We were also made aware of a wine club which provided a 20% discount for $10, no purchase committment required. Needless to say, it paid for itself with the purchase of the bottles of the Petit Verdot. The attendant asked what we liked, and knew what she was doing. Totally off topic, but If my husband were not there, I would have asked her about her skincare regime, as she had gorgeous, glowing skin, something which is rare during winter in these parts. But I digress--she was a professional who understood our tastes and directed us to the offerings best suited to us. We left the store with a case (38lbs for wine, 50 for champagne as they informed us; we had something in between) because the wine was good and the service better than what could be expected at most wine shops. There's also an olive oil. Peppery and fruity. $11. It's imported from California, but if I were to go completely local (and didn't have a good stash of Greek kalamata olive oil), would use this instead. It's 25% more expensive than what I use for everything, as I don't believe in getting one oil for this and another for that, but it's an option. It's still supporting a local producer. read more

Bought a Groupon & went here for a tasting, Luann was very nice & knowledgeable. Place was small but cozy, worth the trip

An amazing variety of wines! Went in for a tasting on a whim, and was blown away by the bottle selection. Very knowledgable employee made the experience well worth the stop in. read more

Stopped in here for a tasting and to buy a bottle of wine for lunch at DiNapolis. The wines were ok, not great and the prices on some were just too high. We did do a tasting and got to keep some glasses as a momento so that was good. We grabbed a bottle of daffodil wine for lunch (not made from daffodils, just called that) and it was refreshing and crisp on a hot day read more

Walked in here on a whim and left feeling like a wine expert! Heidi guided us through several wines and was so sweet! We left with two bottles, two glasses and great memories. I'm going back for sure! read more
