New Jersey wines are being recognized nationally for their excellence in renowned wine competitions and the industry has seen tremendous growth with over 50 licensed wineries now operating in the state. The Garden State Wine Growers Association’s (GSWGA) ongoing mission has been to increase the awareness, appreciation and quality of wines produced in New Jersey. The At the Vineyards YouTube show puts the spotlight on vineyards throughout the state and allows consumers to see how each visit to a winery provides a unique experience. Join us as we profile individual winemakers and owners at vineyards across New Jersey. Join us and explore New Jersey Wine Country with the At the Vineyards Show.
The At the Vineyards series is funded through a USDA Crop Grant and by the Garden State Wine Growers Association.
This edition of the At the Vineyards Show features a visit to Heritage Vineyards in Mullica Hill, New Jersey, which is located in Gloucester County. The Heritage property has been farmed by the Heritage family for six generations since 1853. Bill Heritage and his wife Penni are the owners. The farm was originally a peach and apple farm but they elected to turn to grapes in 1999. In 2001 the winery opened and they have been one of the state’s best vineyards since, winning the Winery of the Year in 2011, 2014 and 2015 in the NJ Wine Competition. Heritage Vineyards is located in the Outer Coastal Plain AVA region.
