We went to the back to do some wine tasting and you get 10 wines to taste! None of the ones I've visited gives that many choices. The lady who helped us was very social and attentive. She made the experience even better. We ended up buying glasses of wine. I think I got peach riesling but they were all good. We also purchased crackers, cheese, meats, and chips to have a little charcuterie set up. It's a bummer they don't offer it in a menu! Since we visited right before Thanksgiving we bought a bottle of Jersey Berry and it was a hit! I will definitely be back.

Wine is by the glass and the first one comes with a glass, so it's a couple of dollars more, while subsequent ones are cheaper.

Our second round we got slushees, which are sweet so they mask how potent the wine can be. The band was also an appropriate volume, which I appreciated, because sometimes you can be yelling in order to hear each other.

The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. On Friday evenings, there's even live music! We enjoyed listening to the guitar player, and the music wasn't so loud that we couldn't hear each other. We all did the build your own tasting flight, which I highly recommend. We got to pick 6 wines for only $18! My favorite that I tried was the Shore House White, but all the wines were delicious. You have the option to order wine by the glass as well, which we did after our tastings. We also ordered some food to share. The bavarian pretzel board was outstanding. I sadly didn't get a picture of the smoked gouda and chorizo flatbread because of how quickly we ate it! I highly recommend this spot for a chill night out with a beautiful atmosphere and great food!

Grape beginnings is a hands- on winery located in Eatontown. If you want to make your own wine:…read moresuch as California or Washington State Reds, whites, red blends and Italian style, this might be the place to try. You get access, according to them, some of the finest grapes from Premier Wine making regions. You use the winery grade equipment and winemaking techniques. This includes bottles, corks and decorative caps in a variety of colors. You get five hands on winemaking sessions over a 10 month period assisted by their experienced and award-winning winemaker, again, according to them. This experience will cost you, depending on how many bottles you want to buy. For example if you want to make/buy 12 bottles, it will cost you $240 or $20 per bottle. On the other end of that spectrum if you want to make/buy a full barrel, it will cost you $3000 which translates to 240 bottles at $12.50 per bottle. Both of these examples are called the Signature Series. There is a more expensive option called the Vineyard Series. In this series you cannot make/buy 12 bottles but must make/buy a qtr, half, or full barrel. Caveat: all monies must be paid up front. Read the fine print and go make some vino. For me? No!!!!!!!! really not interested.

The experience was surprisingly fun! We got to crush grapes in a machine, then pour it into a barrel, then come back to put pressure on the barrel to squeeze the wine out, and we're now waiting to go back for bottling. Prices are okay per bottle, but that's if you buy an entire barrel or half a barrel, which can end up being quite a bit of money. Good luck drinking all that wine - good thing wine usually gets better with time.

We got 2 wine flights, a pitcher of sangria and one bottle of sauvignon blanc. In total it came out to be $109.

The sauvignon blanc was pretty decent though. The view of this place was amazing. Aside from the gorgeous scenery, there was not any wine that stuck out to me in particular.
