(HADDONFIELD, NJ) -- Garden State Wine Growers Association – a coalition of 60+ New Jersey wineries and vineyards supporting the Garden State's wine industry through information, resources, and advocacy – is hosting a weekend of Valentine's Day themed events all centered around wine and chocolate.
The New Jersey Wine & Chocolate Trail Weekend celebrates Valentine's Day and will occur on the weekend of February 14-16, 2025. Throughout the weekend participating New Jersey wineries offer wine tastings, artisanal chocolates, live music, and more.
“In anticipation of Valentine’s Day, New Jersey’s wineries are getting ready with wine, chocolate, and romantic experiences,” shared Devon Perry, Executive Director of the Garden State Wine Growers Association. “Our website, NewJerseyWines.com and Passport to New Jersey Wine Country mobile app both offer the perfect tool to plan your journey and capture your memorable experiences.

With over 60 wineries and vineyards in four distinct American Viticultural Areas, there’s a New Jersey winery within less than an hour’s drive for residents of the Garden State. The four American Viticultural Areas (AVA) are the Warren Hills AVA, the Cape May Peninsula AVA, the Central Delaware Valley AVA and the Outer Coastal Plain AVA. Vineyards across New Jersey grow more than 80 grape varieties, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Pinot Noir, Riesling, Sangiovese, Albarino and Chardonnay. New Jersey’s wineries also produce a wide array of fruit wines, and New Jersey is one of the top producers of wine in the country.
The Garden State Wine Growers Association is a non-profit organization of New Jersey-based wineries, vineyards and allied businesses. It serves as a centralized information repository, resource and clearing house for industry members, and offers a unified voice advocating for issues important to the entire range of New Jersey winery and vineyard operations. Central to this mission are efforts toward branding, marketing, public relations, education, and legislation and regulation for the furtherance of the vineyard and wine industries in the Garden State.
