Tastings

You can try 3 wines for $6 or 5 wines for $10.

Tastings are done at the bar and guided by our staff. Please let us know if you need to be seated for your tasting, we will be happy to accomodate you.

We do not chill our tasting samples because that can dull the full flavor of the wine.
We do offer wine by the glass chilled upon request.

If you are a party of 8 or more, please call ahead to let us know you're coming.
You can call the vineyard at 610-681-3959 or the Jim Thorpe shoppe at 570-325-8138.

We do not allow vans, buses, limos, or any other commercial livery at the vineyard.

Our Wines


WINE LIST

All wines available by the bottle or the glass.
We do not open bottles for consumption
on premises in Jim Thorpe.

Tastings are 5 for $10 or 3 for $6.


Dry & Semi-Dry White

Seyval

Dry White — FRENCH/ AMERICAN
Depending on the weather of a particular vintage, it can run the taste gamut from grapefruit to peach and pineapple. It goes well with heavy fish like tuna or salmon, and with spicy chicken dishes. $5/glass • $12/bottle


Moonlight White

Semi-Dry White — FRENCH/ AMERICAN
Made with the Cayuga White grape. A progeny of Seyval, with a flavor profile similar to Riesling, but ripening much earlier. Excellent with crab legs, or with German sausage and paté. $5/glass • $12/bottle


Rosé

Vin Di Pasqualina

(vin dee pass-kwa-lean-a) Semi-Dry Rosé
A dry-ish rosé that at first sniff seems sweet. A blend of three grapes, but the aroma and character come from Niagara (an American grape variety). Add a few frozen grapes and a slice of peach to a glass, close your eyes and drift to the islands. Makes a killer sangria. $5/glass • $12/bottle


Dry Red

Marechal Foch

(mar-eh-shal fosh) Dry Red — FRENCH/AMERICAN
Small clusters of dark, tiny berries. A favorite of our local birds. Wine is medium-bodied with smooth, supple tannins and pleasant aroma of ripe, red fruits. $7/glass • $16/bottle


Frontenac

(fron-ten-ack) Dry Red — FRENCH/ AMERICAN
A relatively recently conceived variety from Minnesota, known for its cold tolerance and disease resistance. The wines are heavy, bordering on port. $7/glass • $16/bottle


Sweet

Dulcinea

(duhl-sin-ee-uh) Sweet White
Our sweet white wine made from Seyval. Not just sweet, but a well-balanced and delicious. The natural acidity plays well with the sweetness remaining in the finished wine. Good after dinner with fruits, nuts, and light desserts. Also pairs well with spicy Asian food. $5/glass • $12/bottle


La Brusca

(lah brusk-ah) Sweet Red — AMERICAN
Made with concord grapes. Moderately sweet with nice balance. Makes a wonderful sangria or chilled as an aperitif. $5/glass • $12/bottle


Apple Raspberry

Apple Wine — AMERICAN
An infusion of apple wine with red raspberries. The flavor of the apple is veiled by the perfume of the raspberry. Our sweetest wine. Goes well with fruit-based desserts. $5/glass • $12/bottle


Spiced Apple

Apple Wine — AMERICAN
A holiday wine made with locally grown Granny Smith apples, cinnamon, clove, and orange zest. Tastes just like apple pie in a bottle. $5/glass • $12/bottle

Only available at our Jim Thorpe location

Our Vin Di Pasqualina rosé with whiskey, house made strawberry simple syrup, and a dash of lemon, rosewater, and club soda.
