Noon till 5:00 pm


Alba Vineyard invites you to two days of sweet indulgence at our Annual Wine & Chocolate Weekend

Looking for something different to do this Valentine's Day? How about sampling award-winning wines paired with exquisite chocolates at romantic Alba Vineyard, New Jersey’s “Winery of the Year”. To celebrate Valentine's Day, Alba Vineyard will host it’s 6th Annual Wine & Chocolate Weekend on Saturday and Sunday, February 10th & 11th from Noon to 5:00 p.m.

The event will offer visitors a chance to learn more about wine and wine making, wine tasting with unique food pairings, as well as the opportunity to stock up on award-winning Alba wines. Wine cellar tours and barrel tasting with nationally recognized wine maker John Altmaier will also be available.

Indulge yourself in the unforgettable experience of Cielo Tuscan style chocolates crafted by chocolatier Diane Pinder, owner of Donna & Company, a unique artisan chocolate shop featured on the Today Show.

Taste the extraordinary hand-crafted old-world-style cheeses created by the Valley Sheperd. This one-of-a-kind creamery, located in Oldwick, NJ is the culmination of sheep dairy farming as practiced in Europe for the last 4000 years. The creamery crafts Pyreneese-style cave-aged artisan cheeses normally only found in Province, Tuscany or Northern Spain.

No reservations are required and the fee is $5 per person includes: a taste of our Brut-Sparkling Wine (this is the only time of year we open the bottle) samples of wine with the food pairing the tour and the souvenir Alba Vineyard etched glass!
